Label on custom validation message

Question

Hi,
I�m trying to display a the label of a input on a custom validation message using h:messages, for example:
"The field Email is required"
I don�t want to use the requiredMessage attribute of the outputText because I wish to apply it for all fileds on my application.
I�ve tried something like that:
On the jsp:
<h:outputLabel for="email" value="Email" />
<h:inputText value={bean.email} required=true />On the bundle:
javax.faces.component.UIInput.REQUIRED=The field {0} {1} is requiredBut, the {0} parameter is the component ID, and the {1} parameter resolves to null.
Please help, this is very important to me.
THanks

The {1} should resolve to the label of the inputText component. Note that here (and in the documentation) 'label' refers to the value of the label attribute on the inputText component itself. It does not refer to the value of an outputLabel component that is 'for' the input component.
So you want the following:
<h:outputLabel for="email" value="Email" />
<h:inputText id="email" value="#{bean.email}" required="true" label="Email" />Note I also added an id to pair with the for attribute.
