Validating errors

I'm having a small problem with displaying my error messages in my .jsp
page.  I'm probably missing something simple, so I'll just post my code and
hopefully someone can help.

   public ActionErrors validate(ActionMapping mapping,HttpServletRequest
req)
        {
            ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors();

            System.out.println("Your in validate");

            try
              {
                  if((txtSubject == null) || (txtSubject.trim().length() <
1))
                    {
                       System.out.println("Your about to add subject
error");
                       errors.add("txtSubject",new
ActionError("error.subject.required"));
                    }

                  if((txtContentDefault == null) ||
(txtContentDefault.trim().length() < 1))
                    {
                      System.out.println("Your about to add content
default");
                       errors.add("content",new
ActionError("error.content.required"));
                    }
              }
            catch (Exception e)
              {
                  errors.add("exception",new ActionError(e.getMessage()));
              }

            return errors;
        }
