validate search form to know at least one form field is entered

[Ram]

Hi 

I would like to validate my search form with 10 form fields which contains different id's and names.

I want to know if user has selected at least one form filed before submit the form. 

None of the form field is a required field in the form. I have my rules xml file and object for the form.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions.

Thanks in advance!!!

I'd be inclined to use a "custom" validation type.

Jason is correct, you would need to use a custom validation type. This link gives you a bit more information on how to use the custom type.

Thanks Dean, Jason. 

I tried this using like condition name= MustEnterSomething. and Servertest. in xml and a method that return boolean in CFC object file.

It worked fine. I will try using custom later.

Thanks for your quick reply.
