WidgetValidator

public class JavaScriptValidator
extends Object
implements WidgetValidator

A WidgetValidator implemented as a JavaScript snippet. This snippet must return a boolean value. If it returns false, it must have set a validation error on the validated widget or one of its children.

The JavaScript snippet has the "this" variable set to the validated widget, and, if the form is used in a flowscript, can use the flow's global values and fonctions and the cocoon object.
