/**
 * Prado client-side javascript validation fascade.
 *
 * There are 4 basic classes, Validation, ValidationManager, ValidationSummary
 * and TBaseValidator, that interact together to perform validation.
 * The <tt>Prado.Validation</tt> class co-ordinates together the
 * validation scheme and is responsible for maintaining references
 * to ValidationManagers.
 *
 * The ValidationManager class is responsible for maintaining refereneces
 * to individual validators, validation summaries and their associated
 * groupings.
 *
 * The ValidationSummary take cares of display the validator error messages
 * as html output or an alert output.
 *
 * The TBaseValidator is the base class for all validators and contains
 * methods to interact with the actual inputs, data type conversion.
 *
 * An instance of ValidationManager must be instantiated first for a
 * particular form before instantiating validators and summaries.
 *
 * Usage example: adding a required field to a text box input with
 * ID "input1" in a form with ID "form1".
 * <code>
 * <script type="text/javascript" src="../prado.js"></script>
 * <script type="text/javascript" src="../validator.js"></script>
 * <form id="form1" action="...">
 * <div>
 * 	<input type="text" id="input1" />
 *  <span id="validator1" style="display:none; color:red">*</span>
 *  <input type="submit text="submit" />
 * <script type="text/javascript">
 * new Prado.ValidationManager({FormID : 'form1'});
 * var options =
 * {
 *		ID :				'validator1',
 *		FormID :			'form1',
 *		ErrorMessage :		'*',
 *		ControlToValidate : 'input1'
 *	}
 * new Prado.WebUI.TRequiredFieldValidator(options);
 * new Prado.WebUI.TValidationSummary({ID:'summary1',FormID:'form1'});
 *
 * //watch the form onsubmit event, check validators, stop if not valid.
 * Event.observe("form1", "submit" function(ev)
 * {
 * 	 if(Prado.WebUI.Validation.isValid("form1") == false)
 * 		Event.stop(ev);
 * });
 * </script>
 * </div>
 * </form>
