Re: [Wicket-user] validating input

[Jonathan Cone]

Hey Vincent,   In wicket, validators can be add()ed to components like anything else.  For example, one way to make a textfield required without using the helper class would be to do something like: TextField tf  = new TextField("id",...); tf.add(RequiredValidator.getInstance());   Check out the javadoc for the  wicket.markup.html.form.validation package, there are some common validators in there and its real easy to write a custom one yourself.  I think you'll find that validation in wicket is as easy as you were hoping. ----- Original Message ----- From: Vincent Jenks To: wicket-user@lists.sourceforge.net Sent: Tuesday, March 14, 2006 3:52 PM Subject: [Wicket-user] validating input I just built a form that has a mixture of TextField, TextArea, and CheckBox components in it.  I am now adding validation to get a feel for how it works but am confused. I found that I could substitute a TextField with a RequiredTextField and validation was *extremely* simple to setup....if you're using <input> form fields.  However, it doesn't appear that these helper classes exist for all types of form widgets...or am I mistaken?
