[Validation] and local string insertion

[Corey Scott]

Hi,

I have been trying to achieve the same in my validate method to the
following extract from me validation.xml
      <form name="UpdateTaskForm">
              <field property="txtTaskSummary"
                     depends="required">
                  <msg
                    name="required"
                    key="stdError.missing"/>

                  <arg0 key="UpdateTaskForm.txtTaskSummary"/>
              </field>
       </form>

Extract from my message bundle:
stdError.required.field=Please enter/choose a {0}
UpdateTaskForm.txtTaskSummary=Task Summary

My validate method:
    public ActionErrors validate(
        ActionMapping mapping,
        HttpServletRequest request)
    {
        ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors();

        if ((this.txtTaskSummary == null)
            || (this.txtTaskSummary.length() == 0))
        {
            MessageResources resources = this.getServlet().getInternal();

            errors.add(
                "txtTaskSummary",
                new ActionMessage(
                    "stdError.required.field",
                    resources.getMessage( request.getLocale(),
"UpdateTaskForm.txtTaskSummary")));
        }

        return errors;
    }


Hopefully it is clear that I am trying get an output similar to:
Please enter/choose a Task Summary

But all I can get is:
Please enter/choose a {0} // without the whole get resources stuff
or
Please enter/choose a null //code above

I am getting the impression I am very much off track, any help would be great.

Thanks,
Corey
