Yes, only put the fields you want into the validation rule. >>> <formset> >>> <form name="/ClientA"> >>> >>> <field property="clientaFirstName" depends="required,mask"> >>> <msg key="lnra.clienta.clientaFirstName" name="required"/> >>> <msg name="mask" key="lnra.global.nameMask"/> >>> <var> >>> <var-name>mask</var-name> >>> <var-value>${nameMask}</var-value> >>> </var> >>> </field> >>> </form> >>> >>> </formset> >>> Create another form with the name attribute set to the action of the other place the form-bean is used. So What you _mean_ to be asking is if I visit an action and don't want the validation to run until the person _submits_ from that action, which was the discussion of a minor thread late last week. Personally, I _never_ use automatic validation and I _always_ submit with a POST. This makes it trivial to divide my actions up into GET and POST handlers. I only call validation on POSTs. A few other options were also discussed.
