Geoff Callender updated TAP5-2429:
----------------------------------
Description:
Tapestry has client-side translators which, on input, translate before
validation. They use the same error-reporting mechanism as the validators
(highlight the field and its label, display the message below the field).
However, we cannot contribute our own translators. Consider these situations
where the server-side field is numeric:
Enter amount: [ ] (eg. 2k=2000, 5m=5000000]
Enter elapsed: [ 2:30] (min:sec)
Enter duration: [ 2m30s] (eg. 1m17s)
When the server-side is numeric and the client-side representation is
non-numeric, it fails client-side validation because it's not a number. If we
could do client-side translation then this would be solved.
Currently, instead, we have to disable client-side validation. For a live
example, see the 4th field here (Preview 25):
http://jumpstart.doublenegative.com.au/jumpstart7/examples/input/augmentingtranslators
I've seen a suggestion that Translator#render(Field field, String message,
MarkupWriter writer, FormSupport formSupport) might solve this. If so, then
perhaps this should be a documentation request because I've been unable to find
any examples in the documentation.
