Hello John, Only because I have my hint class <p> in there so in my forms there is a little text beside each field. This is all wrapped inside the <li> Sure I can get the input text error to get an error class to hi-light the text field, but looks rather dumb when the form has : Form
<li class = "error"> [label] [field] [hint] </li> <li class = "error"> [label] [field] [hint] </li> <li class = "error"> [label] [field] [hint] </li> <li class = "error"> [label] [field] [hint] </li> Its not so much the error message I care about, I am not trying to place that anywhere, just the error class. I need to add it to the entire <li></li> that houses my field, lable, and what not. So everything inside then has my red bg error class, not just the field and lable. -----Original Message----- From: cake-php@googlegroups.com [mailto:cake-...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of John Andersen Sent: January-05-10 5:16 AM To: CakePHP Subject: Re: Error Placement / Styles Well, now that I took a better look at your code, I don't understand why you don't use the standard cake form field and error generation, because that should be all you need :) Example HTML from my own code where the field has an error - it is mandatory: [code] print( $form->input( 'Reporter.email', array('label' => __ ('visitors_email',true), 'class' => 'email', 'error' => array ('report_email_rule' => __('report_email_rule',true) ) ) ) ); [/code] produces the following HTML when I don't enter an e-mail address! [code] <div class="input text error"> <label for="ReporterEmail">E-mail</label> <input name="data[Reporter][email]" type="text" class="email form- error" maxlength="128" value="" id="ReporterEmail" /> <div class="error-message" report_email_rule="report_email_rule">reporter_email_rule</div> </div> [/code] Observe that the form helper has automatically inserted the error class in the div element!
