- freemarker-2.3.8.jar
- ognl-2.6.11.jar
- struts2-core-2.0.11.jar

Let us see one example, files required

hi,
i am using date picker in struts 2 . i have to print error message when one try to give from date is greater than to date.
@Abhishek
You can get this by using XML Validations.
But i will prefer jQuery validations for these type of tasks
as easy and less time taking, try this too.
How to validate the datetimepisker in struts 2….? and How to store this value to database….? Whenever i try to validate using requiredstring and date then give any value in appropriate form, the value is null, mean the validation show “date is required”.Sometimes i try remove validation and store the value to database, the value is store successfully but not store appropriate value, whenever i try to store different value but always store “null”….Please help anyone…..
Thanks in advance
Best regards
Veera
Can the datepicker be used with tiles?
