Question

I have the first name and last name fields in a form, but I want to use the same div to display any of their errors.

Form Fields:

<form:input path="firstName" id="firstName" cssErrorClass="errorStyle"/>
<form:input path="firstName" id="firstName" cssErrorClass="errorStyle"/>

I would like to be able to bind the form:errors to multiple paths such as below:

<form:errors path="firstName, lastName" element="div"/>

Is this possible?
How could I achieve this?

Answer 1

Use

<form:errors path="*" element="div" cssClass="error-message"/>

One option may be to invest the words so

     nameFirst = firstName 

     nameLast = lastName

and then use

<form:errors path="name*" element="div" cssClass="error-message"/>
