Displaying error values with Struts Validator Framework

[smrimell]

Hi,

I'm using the struts validator framework to validate an email address
in a form.
If the user enters an invalid email address (ie
invalidEmailAddress.com) I'd like to display the following error
message:-

"invalidEmailAddress.com is an invalid e-mail address"

However all I seem to be able to do with the validator framework is
output the following:-

"Email address is an invalid e-mail address"

with messageResources.properties and validator.xml set as follows:-

validator.xml:-
<form name="addressForm">
<field property="emailAddress"
depends="email">
<msg name="email" key="errors.email" />
<arg name="email" key="form.address.label.emailAddress" />
</field>
</form>

messageResources.properties:-
errors.email={0} is an invalid e-mail address.
form.address.label.emailAddress=Email address

I'm using <html:errors /> to output the error list in a jsp.

Is there any way to substitute the actual entered value into the
errors.email message using the struts validator framework? I know it
can be done in the validate() method of the ValidatorForm class but
it there method of simply using the validator framework?

Thanks in advance for your help.

i don't think it's possible except using validate() method
