Sorry Erik, prematurely hit some contrl key.. 

So, to continue, in your success.jsp add:

<logic:messagesPresent message="true">
       <html:messages id="message" message="true">
         <span id="success"><c:out value="${message}"/></span><br>
       </html:messages>
</logic:messagesPresent>

But to display your error, do:

<logic:messagesPresent>
    <span id="errorsHeader"><bean:message key="errors.validation.header"/></span>
    <html:messages id="error"  message="false">
      <li><strutsbean:write name="error" /></li>
    </html:messages>
    <hr>
</logic:messagesPresent>

Hth,
Geeta
