Hi, using Struts 1.0, I added David Winterfeldts Validation framework and got better error-message-tags as a side-dish (for free).
Try it. With David's Tags you can specify the errors you want to show better.. hope this helps Alexander Jesse -----Original Message----- From: Michael Sabitov [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, December 29, 2001 12:24 AM To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' Subject: RE: Error Tag Usage - Found the answer myself - I think Hello! I wanted to use errors tag in the following scenario: if there was an error in the specific input control I'd like to change some properties of the label for that control (for example change text color to red). In addition I wanted to display standard list of errors in the beginning of the page. As far as I understand it is impossible to do it using just errors tag. Has anybody solved this problem using Struts? Thank you, Michael. -----Original Message----- From: Danny Collins [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, December 28, 2001 2:21 PM To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' Subject: RE: Error Tag Usage - Found the answer myself - I think Your off just a little bit, Struts automatically checks for the existence of the header and the footer. So if it's in the properties file it will use them. So if you don't want to use the header and the footer take them out of the properties file.

Previously errors were always printed! Future enhancements would include additional attributes to always turn off the header or footer. " It appears to me that I cannot use the errors tag in the way that I have described. I am still unclear about header and footer in Struts 1.0.1 Can anyone elaborate on the correct usage? Is there a date for 1.0.1? Thanks.

When I use the error tag to display the LIST of errors it works as expected along with the header an footer that I have in my properties file. However when I choose not to display the list, but instead just place a single error message beside an input control ie: <html:errors property="legalName" /> I expect to get just the message (if any) for that field. The output shows the single error for legalName but includes the header and footer. Do I have an error in my thinking? thanks. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
