Hello,

I have been using Struts for awhile but it was a very old (1.02) version.
Just finished upgrading my apps to Struts 1.2.7 and would like to take
advantage of the DynaValidatorForm.

I've found several articles on it and many examples. However, I haven't
found one that includes a complete example app and I am having trouble
getting it to work properly with the pieces I have.

Basically, what I want to do is create the form dynamically in the
struts-config.xml file, define the error messages in a properties file and
define the validations in a validator.xml file.

Here is what I have so far. When I try to to run my "dyna.jsp" I get a
"javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: null" error. I'v'e put breakpoints in my
action class but it never gets that far.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  </form-bean>
