I've been trying to use s:decorate in a form. Here is the fragment I am using to 'decorate':
<ui:composition ...>
<s:div id="#{id}" style="margin-bottom:9px;">
<label class="topLabel">
<ui:insert name="label">Field Label</ui:insert>
</label>
<div>
<ui:insert name="field">Form Field</ui:insert>
<s:span styleClass="required" rendered="#{required}">*</s:span>
</div>
<s:message styleClass="invalid"/>
</s:div>
</ui:composition>
and in my form, I'm using this with s:decorate like such:
<a4j:form id="newApplication">
<h:messages/>
<s:decorate template="/WEB-INF/view/components/label-on-top-fieldset.xhtml">
<ui:param name="id" value="nameRow"/>
<ui:define name="label">Name:</ui:define>
<ui:define name="field">
<h:inputText id="name" value="#{appToEdit.name}"
styleClass="textField" style="font-weight:bold;"
size="32" required="true"/>
</ui:define>
</s:decorate>
....
The problem I am having is that in addition to a submit button, I want to use a cancel button (or link); no matter which technique (button or link) I use, validation is invoked and thus I can never 'cancel' out of my form.
Is there a way to tell s:decorate to not invoke validate for a JSF request?
Thanks,
Brad Smith
