[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBSEAM-2809) s:inputPassword

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-2809?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12433502#action_12433502 ] 

Daniel Roth commented on JBSEAM-2809:
-------------------------------------

Pete: "Also, I still want to see it be possible to vaidate two fields are equal". This actually works, I made it more appearent in the trunk now . You only need the value/valuebinding in the first field. However, it comes with a problem. If field 1 is filled with some data and field 2 is empty (null), the validator code will never be run... which is why one might need the binding to a bean to ensure that the second value isn't empty.

A workaround is to do something like: 
<h:inputText id="email"/>
<h:inputText value=" ">
  <s:validateEquality for="email"/>
</h:inputText> 

but this isn't imo very nice. It works though.

I would really like to see a solution for this (before next JSF version), so if anyone has a suggestion on how to force validation (even when value is null) I'd be glad to put it in.
