Struts 2 Validation

[priyam sengupta]

Hi,
I am having a problem with the positioning of the error messages using struts 2 validation. they are displayed on the top of the text field for which i have written the validation. Is there any way to change the positioning of the error messages to the right hand side of the text field which is my requiremnt. I have tried modifying the struts 2 core.jar file but i couldnt find anything related with positioning of the messages. The least i could do was changing the color of the error message by changing the controlheader-core.ftl file. Any help will be greatly appreciated..

You're on the right track, although I'd suggest it might be easier to create your own theme and work from that. You can also extract the FreeMarker files instead of unjar-ing and re-jar-ing the S2 libs.

I suspect you just didn't modify the relevant files correctly; it's all in there though. Off the top of my head I don't recall which file it is.
