Thank you for this information. It was not apparent from the documentation online or the example. I did separate my form i different section, each of which is in a subform and it work well now.

Yeah I bumped into that as well. All the components you want to have validation "turned off" have to be in a sub form.

form
  subform
    some components
  subform
    other components

It would be nice to not have to do that, but I think there are good architectural reasons why this has to be the case. Also I am pretty sure this works:

form
  subform
     some components
     subform
        other components

then use the actionFor property on commandLink/Button to send only the inner subForm.

    Thanks for this suggestion. I tried the subform. However, it does not
    seem to disable global form validation. I have this hierarchy:

    - form
       - <some components>
      ...
      - subform
        - DocumentEditor, a custom composite element made of:
           - 2 HtmlInputText
           - 1 file upload
           - 1 tomahawk htmlcommandbutton with an action listener
       - <some components>

    I see from the html rendering that the subform  is taken into account
    (it creates the javascript mentioned in docs and allowing to manualy
    submit the subform), however, it goes in validation (and fails) for
    components outside the subform. Did i fail to notice some particular
    trick i need to use with subforms?

    Thanks for help.
