Without seeing your validation code I'm guessing you have this or want to
have this:
public ActionErrors validate (ActionMapping actionMapping,
HttpServletRequest httpServletRequest)
{
ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors();
if (getCountryName() == null || getCountryName().length() <
1)
{
errors.add("countryName", new
ActionError("errors.required","Country Name"));
}
if (getCountryCapital() == null ||
getCountryCapital().length() < 1)
{
errors.add("countryCapital", new
ActionError("errors.required","Country Capital"));
}
saveMessages(request, (ActionMessages) errors);
return (errors);
}
