form validation, assigning context

["Bullard, James" <JB...@AR.SONY.COM>]

Is there anyway to declare that a validator should create ActionErrors under
a given key. For instance in my code I write something like this:

new ActionErrors("user-errors", new ActionError("errors.user.invalid",
username)); 

Then in the page (I am using velocity, but this is not important bear with
the code) I have something like this:

#displayErrorMarkup("user-errors") 

The problem is that when this macro goes and fetches the errors it uses the
key "user-errors" to fetch the errors, so errors which the validator
generated will not be displayed, I did not see anyway for a form element in
validation.xml to be declared with ActionErrors context key which I think is
quite necessary, so I am probably missing something simple.  


Thanks in advance, 

jim

No is the short answer, but theres nothing to stop you storing them in the
request under your own key as well in your ActionForm's validate method.
