        formIds="remoteform" targets="result">Submit This Form</sj:a>  </s:form>

Answer 1

You can’t see the error if you don’t put an <s:fielderror /> tag in your JSP.

Add it before <s:form> and you will see your validation error…

P.S: the same applies to <s:actionmessage /> and <s:actionerror > (that are not involved with the validation but added by you)
