html:messages

[Ritu varada]

I am unable to display a successful update message on the jsp whereas I can display an error message on the same jsp. This is what I have im my jsp file.

 <logic:messagesPresent>
   <ul>
   <font color="#ff0000">   
   <html:messages id="error" >
      <h4>Error</h4>
      <li><b><bean:write name="error"/></b></li>
   </html:messages>
   
   <html:messages id="msg" message="true">
      <h4>Successful Updation</h4>   
      <li><b><bean:write name="msg"/></b></li>
   </html:messages>
   
   </font>
   </ul><hr/>
</logic:messagesPresent> 

In my action's execute method , I have this code

 if (updated) {
        
        ActionMessage msgs = new ActionMessage("updateSuccess");
       ActionMessages msg = new ActionMessages();
       msg.add(ActionMessages.GLOBAL_MESSAGE, msgs );        
       saveMessages(req,msg);
       
        } else {
        ActionMessage message = new ActionMessage("updateFailure");
        ActionMessages messages = new ActionMessages();
        messages.add(ActionMessages.GLOBAL_MESSAGE, message );
        
        error.add(ActionMessages.GLOBAL_MESSAGE, message );
        saveErrors(req,messages);
 
        } 

I have defined "updateSuccess" in my application.properties.
what am I missing for the messages ? Appreciate anybody's help.
Thanks.
