Subject: newbie validator question: show value of a field in error


I have a dumb question re: struts validator:

How do I show the value of the offending field in the error message as
opposed to the field name?

i.e. if the field I want to validate is email, and the user types in foo,
how do I show
'foo' is not a valid email address

as opposed to the more standard (or widely documented) error
'Email Address' is not valid

Thanks,
Daniel

I could certainly do this by hand in the validate() method of the form or in
the action (which I have been doing this for the last few months), but I was
hoping the validator could do it for me somehow...

or maybe I misunderstood you?  obviously concatenating strings would be
bad due to i18n.
