one thing iv noticed is that if i leave the city field empty, then the error message just mentions that the city field needs an entry. when i put in a city, that's when it mentions the state field being empty.

sorry to keep asking - but im having a problem removing the 'state' field.

when i turn it off in the admin tool, the field disappears from the registeration, but it wont let me register. it keeps asking me to select a state from the drop down menu, even though it is not there.

iv added a hidden field:

<html:hidden name="RegisterCustomerForm" property="state" value=""/>

but its still asking. dont know why

yes i did think about using dummy values to pad the fields i didnt want, but it felt hacky to me. im happy to go down that route though, so will give it a whirl.

thanks very much for your time.

Thats great. thanks

Would stripping out 'required' fields mean i have to reprogram the custom source code? What im getting at is: if i remove a field from say the customer i.e. telephone number, is the application going to always expect a customer to have a telephone number, as will the DB, as will reports and tables in the admin tool - so would not be an easy thing to do?

thanks again.

hi guys,

im just after a bit of forward thought regarding customizasions id like to do.

id like to really simplify customer and product data, so that customers dont need to register to order, or if they do then they dont need to enter all the fields in the default app (maybe just a username and password. address could be entered on checkout).

id also like to strip out a lot of product data too thats in there by default (having to enter product data for 3 different languages is one thing).

my question is: is this possible? can i strip out default data requirements from the app without getting a load exceptions due to missing data, even so far as maybe remove columns in the database?

just wondering if you've known this customizasion before, or whether id bite off more than i can chew.

thanks for your time.

i know this is a very simple question, which might not be directly relaed to konakart - but im trying to add a new page to the application. im fairly new to struts, but all i have done is copy and rename the contactUs page. iv then duplicated all the xml entires that the contactUs page has, and renamed them for my new page 'aboutMe'.

when i run the application i get an 'no action instance for path could be created'.

iv noticed two things:

i dont have a classes folder in the application & in the konakart_custom.jar, the new action i created for aboutMe is not there.

the application works, but have i maybe not deployed it correctly, or am i missing  further configuration?
