Validator rule question

[Rivka Shisman]

Hello Friends,

 

I have a DynaValidatorForm in which there 2 String properties: action
and student_birth_date.

I have a date validation like this:

 

            <field

                property=" student_birth_date"

                depends="required,date">

                    <arg key="Student birth date" resource="false"
position="0"/>

                    <arg key="MM/YY" resource="false" position="1"/>

                              <var>

                          <var-name>datePatternStrict</var-name>

                          <var-value>MM/yy</var-value>

                              </var>                   

            </field>

 

 

I need that the validation above to depend on the value of the "action"
property in the Form (i.e. if action equals "create" or "update" then do
the validation, else ignore it)

 

How can I do that?

 

Thanks
