Hi,

I have been trying to achieve the same in my validate method to the
following extract from me validation.xml
     <form name="UpdateTaskForm">
             <field property="txtTaskSummary"
                    depends="required">
                 <msg
                   name="required"
                   key="stdError.missing"/>

                 <arg0 key="UpdateTaskForm.txtTaskSummary"/>
             </field>
      </form>

Extract from my message bundle:
stdError.required.field=Please enter/choose a {0}
UpdateTaskForm.txtTaskSummary=Task Summary

My validate method:
   public ActionErrors validate(
       ActionMapping mapping,
       HttpServletRequest request)
   {
       ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors();

       if ((this.txtTaskSummary == null)
           || (this.txtTaskSummary.length() == 0))
       {
           MessageResources resources = this.getServlet().getInternal();

           errors.add(
               "txtTaskSummary",
               new ActionMessage(
                   "stdError.required.field",
                   resources.getMessage( request.getLocale(),
"UpdateTaskForm.txtTaskSummary")));
       }

       return errors;
   }

Hopefully it is clear that I am trying get an output similar to:
Please enter/choose a Task Summary

But all I can get is:
Please enter/choose a {0} // without the whole get resources stuff
or
Please enter/choose a null //code above

I am getting the impression I am very much off track, any help would be great.

Thanks,
Corey
