You need to define some convention to identify that you want a property value in your args, then when you generate the message, replace any such values. For example.... datePatternStrict dd/mm/yyyy Then in your validators (e.g. date validator), when you get the message if the validation fails - then you need to replace any arg values. Something like..... public String getMessage(Object bean, Field field, ValidatorAction va, MessageResources resources) { String validationName =3D va.getName(); // Get the message Msg msg =3D field.getMessage(validationName); if (msg =3D=3D null) { msg =3D va.getMsg(); } // Process args String[] args =3D field.getArgs(validationName); for (int i =3D 0; i < args.length; i++ ) { if (args[i] =3D=3D null) { continue; if (args[i].isResource()) { args[i] =3D resources.getMessage(args[i], null); } else if (args[i].startsWith("${")) { String property =3D args[i].substring(2, args[i].length -2); args[i] =3D ValidatorUtils.getValueAsString(bean, property); } } // retrieve message from resources return resources.getMessage(msg.getKey(), args); } hth Niall ----- Original Message -----=20 From: "Daggumalli, Sivaji" Sent: Wednesday, November 16, 2005 11:25 PM Sorry to confuse you Niall. Actually we are using Commons Validator as standalone project. (Not with Struts). I was wrongly mentioned that earlier by mistake. Is it possible to extend commons Validator 1.2.0 to achieve this behavior? Regards and Thanks in advance.

Niall ----- Original Message -----=20 From: "Daggumalli, Sivaji" Sent: Wednesday, November 16, 2005 10:04 PM Hi, Afternoon got a commons Validator problem... We are using the Struts Validator and in my validation.xml i have: In Application Resources i have: errors.date=3D{0} is not a date. x.dateOfBirth=3DDate Of Birth If the user entered date is in the wrong format an error message is produced: Date Of Birth is not a date. This is all good. But what I am trying to achieve is including the input value in the message. I know in the validation.xml you can specify and use vars in the error message (for example): minlength 10 What I want to do is replace the (the literal vaue '10') with the user input. I have tried many things ${field:dateOfBirth}, ${dateOfBirth}, ${myForm.dateOfBirth} but none have worked.
