Re: Help: ActionError - does not expand the{0}placeholder
jeff,
i *am* impressed. and the impression i get is that you have no interest
whatsoever in helping me solve my problem, except in as much as it gives you
a reason to spout off how much you know about the validation framework.
which i've already clarified, is of no use to me and my setup.
SHEESH!!!

Will,
The *only* reason for my last note was to tell you *why*
you didn't find a validation.xml file on your system. As to the
part about "spout off about how much you know", well, that's
just too funny. I may even have to save that e-mail :)
have a good one,
-jeff
