Hi,

In struts validator framwork. This used for client side validation.
There are 2 important files
Validation.xml and Validator-rules.xml

In Validator-rules.xml all Validation rules will be available.
In validaor.xml you need to mention the form name for which you are validating and field name and some other information.

Put the messaege error{0}is required in ur Application properties ( Copy from the validator-rules.xml)
and then retrieve formbean object=field value in the same Application properties file
