Description

The T5 validators generate the validation JavaScript although the form has set "clientValidation=false". The form does not inlude the required JS-libs when "clientValidation=false. This leads to an JS error on the client side.

This script is generated with clientValidation=false:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
Event.observe(window, "load", function() {
Tapestry.Field.required('nameField', 'You must provide a value for
Name.');
});
// -->
</script>

This is the error in Firefox:
Error: Event.observe is not a function
