How to stop Form Validation on only one transition. With the following code I have form validation turn on and everything is working great but if the user clicks "cancel" I dont want to run the form validation. anyway around this?

<view-state id="helloworld" view="input.jsp" model="customer" popup="true">
    		<transition on="submit" to="preview" />
    		<transition on="cancel" to="thanks"/>
</view-state>

Please use [ code][/code ] tags when posting code and please take the time to read the reference guide, the section called 'Suppressing validation' should be a give away.

I ran into a issue this does not cancel back to the pre-view

<view-state id="address" view="input2.jsp" model="customer">
            
			<binder>
				<binding property="address" required="true"/>
				<binding property="city" />
				<binding property="state" />
				<binding property="zipCode" />
			</binder>
    		<transition on="submit" to="preview" />
    		<transition on="cancel" to="name" validate="false" />
	</view-state>

use on your button tag immediate=true which skips amongst other things the validation...(if you are using jsf)

<h:commandButton immediate="true" ...../>
