Hi IV, Thanks for the help. I gave that a go, Putting the error.stuff into my resource bundle. I am now getting back the bullet points for each Error but still cannot see the messages at all!
This seems nuts to me, if I look at the ActionError constructor, it takes a string as it's parameter which I presume is what it displays! So my jsp is getting the ActionError (because it outputs a bullet for the bullet list). However, it just can't seem to display the string! Any other ideas?
