Struts Validation with ArrayLiist of beans

[sudhakar Tadepalli]

I am trying to validate wether user selected a check box or not.
In jsp I have a collection of beans and displaying as follows.

<html:form action="/edit.do?method=edit">
<logic:iterate indexId="i" id="collection" name="dataForm" property="collection">
<%if (i.intValue()%2 == 0)
{%>
<tr>
<%}else{%>
<tr bgcolor=#C0C0C0>
<%}%>


<td>
<html:checkbox name="collection" property="sceneid" indexed="true"/>

</td>
<td>
<bean:write name="collection" property="personid" />

</td>
</tr>
</logic:iterate>
<tr><td><html:submit styleClass="button" property="edit">Edit</html:submit><td>
</html:form>

When I submit it is calling action class and edit method and returning the forward jsp. But it sgould validate.

Here is my validate.xml file

<form name="/edit">
<field property="sceneid" indexedListProperty="collection" depends="required">
<arg0 key="Select the check box" resource="false"/>

</field>
</form>

"/edit" is my action path name. I am not using formName but I tried with form name also.

Action Class :
public class LifeAAction extends DispatchAction {
public ActionForward edit(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm form,
HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)
throws Exception {


return mapping.findForward("edit");
}
}

Could you show us action-mappings definition for LifeAAction ?

First, you should be using c:if tag for your if statement and not scriptlets.

Have you gotten anything else in this form to validate?

Are you trying to validate that one or more is being checked?

Your action needs to extend ValidatorAction.

My Bad, form needs to extend ValidatorForm.

Kerry, I will use C:if tag later after make it work. This is a test page, I may have some more validation on the form. But for now I am checking if user selects atleast on check box (Required), Then I want to check if user selects more than one check box and clicked edid button I should validate to show he can only select one check box.

Cendy,

Here is the mapping.

<action path="/edit" type="com.amfam.lifewkfl.web.actions.LifeAAction"
name="dataForm" scope="session" parameter="method" validate="true" input="page.lifeA">
<forward name="edit" path="page.edit" />
</action>
