Email validation regex - client vs. server

2012-10-06 Thread 
Hi all,

I'm using @EmailValidator annotation to check an email address.
The Struts2 documentation http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/email-validator.
html(http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/email-validator.html) mentions that
following regular expression is being used to check the email address:

\\b(^[_A-Za-z0-9-](\\.[_A-Za-z0-9-])*@([A-Za-z0-9-])+((\\.com)|(\\.net)|(\\.org)|(\\.info)|(\\.edu)|(\\.mil)|(\\.gov)|(\\.biz)|(\\.ws)|(\\.us)|(\\.tv)|(\\.cc)|(\\.aero)|(\\.arpa)|(\\.coop)|(\\.int)|(\\.jobs)|(\\.museum)|(\\.name)|(\\.pro)|(\\.travel)|(\\.nato)|(\\..{2,3})|(\\..{2,3}\\..{2,3}))$)\\b

I'm just wondering why following regular expression is actually being
generated for the client side validation instead of the first one? (This is
what I see in the generated HTML page)
/\b(^[_A-Za-z0-9-]+(\.[_A-Za-z0-9-]+)*@([A-Za-z0-9-])+(\.[A-Za-z0-9-]+)*((\.
[A-Za-z0-9]{2,})|(\.[A-Za-z0-9]{2,}\.[A-Za-z0-9]{2,}))$)\b/gi

The reason why I ask this question is that the client side validation (using
the second reg ex) considers for example this address aaa@aa.aaa
(mailto:aaa@aa.aaa) as a valid email address.
Do I miss something or is it a bug?

I think the docs are wrong, in code I see

\\b(^['_A-Za-z0-9-]+(\\.['_A-Za-z0-9-]+)*@([A-Za-z0-9-])+(\\.[A-Za-z0-9-]+)*((\\.[A-Za-z0-9]{2,})|(\\.[A-Za-z0-9]{2,}\\.[A-Za-z0-9]{2,}))$)\\b

So please register an issue


Kind regards

struts2 disable validation on page load

2012-10-06 Thread prashid 
I am using xml based validation.

*Problem:*

I don't want validation to perform on input form when page loaded first time
because all the fields are blank for user to fill in. Suppose for register
form to add new student. It should perform once I click the button.

*Note:* /I want to retain same url even when I do the validation on button
click. New form URL is http://localhost:8000/Struts2_Spring_Crud/student/add
and if validation fail even than the url should be same./

*struts.xml*



list
/student.edit.tiles


*input form*

Thanks,

if I do processing as   than the
URL will change to /processAdd from /add if input error is generated. How I
stop it from changing URL thus not validate on page load. That's what I
want?

Set the failure result of the processAdd to redirect to the add action.
