errors.header in struts2

[Che Frenz]

Hi!
In struts 1 there is an option to specify an error header and footer.
Ex. errors.header=<div class="errorMsg"><b>The following errors have occurred: </b><ul class="errorMsg">

I can't seem to find out how to do this in struts2. I tried the same thing but it doesn't seem to change the errors.

Any ideas?
Thanks!

There isn't equivalent functionality out-of-the-box.

You can check for the presence of errors and do it manually, though. Personally I never cared for putting HTML in the properties file so for me it's actually an improvement, but it may be slightly less convenient.

Cool. Thanks for the response!

Me again. Dumb question - how do I check for errors? New to Struts 2 (obviously) and not sure how to format s:if to check for errors. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

If your action extends ActionSupport (awfully convenient) then you have access to all its methods via OGNL, including hasActionErrors(), hasActionMessages(), and hasFieldErrors().

Perfect! Thanks again!!!
