Darn.. If I use a validateAll for the whole form I get: | | <h:selectOneRadio id="advertType" required="true" value="#{advertisingCampaignController.campaign.advert.type}"> | <s:selectItems value="#{advertisingCampaignController.campaign.advert.advertTypes}" var="advertType" label="#{messages[advertType.label]}"/> | <s:convertEnum /> | <s:validate/> | </h:selectOneRadio> | For now, (after finding the problem!), I have just added <s:validate/> to all the other fields. Is this a JIRA issue? View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4037274#...
