issue with validation of replicant field..

motlnt

Hi All,
In TS 6.5,
I have few replicant fields in my DCT and there are some required fields in it...when I try to save the DCT w/o entering anything in the DCT it gives me an error at the bottom of DCT asking to fil those values but the screen does not show any 'RED' error line above the replicant item.
Is this the way it is suppose to work in TS 6.5??

Thx in advance,
MJ

Hi Manju

I tried the sample DCRs on my system, running 6.5

When I changed a sample DCR to have a required field (book review template)
and did not fill it in, it turned red on my screen.

I know you have a number of hidden fields, is there a chance that one
of those are not getting filled ?

Try the sample templates.

okie..
this is Manish here...we all worked for the same project..
in your datacapture.cfg we are refering to DTD version 4.5..does this cause a problem...
even unfilled fields turns red in my case but the error message in 'RED' does nto show up...

I seen, there were some other posts on the samebefore saying the same issues. If you can send your DCT, will help to figure out your problem.

Thanks Nicholas

I wonder if it's because your VFE is not inline. Total stab in the dark, but that's my guess.

Current Environment(s):
(1) TS 6.5 on W2K3
(2) TS 6.1 SP1 on W2K3
By the way, I miss Unix terribly.

From the sounds of what you are saying, everything is working as designed, I think. You're saying you get a message at the bottom of your screen and the fields that are required and not filled out turn red, correct? That is working as designed. What I'm hearing, I think, is that you think there should be an error message above the field as well? That has never been the case with templating. You do get a red error message on workflow instantiation screens, but that has never been the case with templating.

You are not getting any error message while saving because you defined <replicant min=0 in replicant that means without any replicant instance you can save the DCR.

If you want to show red ... message you may need to write something like this..

<replicant min="1" max="10" hide-name="f" default="0">

Thanks Nicholas
