I am looking for the ability to handle the ActionMessage in a different way in my application. In the validate method of the form I create a new instance of ActionErrors and add ActionMessage instances to it. In the Action dispatch method I call validate and get a non empty ActionErrors instance. To figure how to make this work, I can get the iterator to the keys and copy it to the request attribute like
Iterator iter = errors.properties ( ); request.setAttribute ( "ERRORS", errors ); but I can't get the messages associated with the property to allow me to manipulate my page. What I would like is: for ActionErrors to be a collection, the I could iterate on the errors and get the key and the values. I could iterate on the values, or reteive a specific one. I want the ability to inspect an error condition and if it exists or not and generate jsp accordingly with an error message. Does anyone know how to do this? it would look like, but I dream too much <c:choose> <c:when test='${ not empty ERROR.confirmMatch }'> <c:forEach var='message' items='${ERROR.confirmMatch}'> <tr><td><fmt:message key='${message}'/></td></tr> <!-- Generate specific code --> </c:forEach> </c:when> <c:otherwise> <!-- Generate specific code --> </c:otherwise> </c:choose> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
