    My quest for the super-AJAX form

    ericjava.eric.chiralsoftware.net

      I'm trying to build the ultimate AJAX-style input forms for my new web application, and I have a simple question.


      I've got a simple fill-in form with text fields.  These have validators.  I'm using <a:support onblur to re-render each field when it blurs, therefore displaying validation messages as soon as the user is done with the field.


      Here's the question.  What I want is for the submit button to not be active at all until the form is completely valid.


      In other words, on the submit button, there should be a disabled="#{formInvalid}" somehow, but I don't know how to do that.


      Any ideas on doing this?  Also, any examples of the right way to do a form with AJAX-style field validation?


      By the way, my validators are simple stuff, like, is it a valid email address, that kind of thing.


      Thanks for any ideas.
