When working with RequiredIfOtherFieldEquals and
RequiredIfOtherFieldDoesNotEqual validators the error messages can be
quite user unfriendly.
Assuming you have a select-box named 'action' where the currently selected
option has a value of 2 and a label of 'Forward Message to' you get error
messages like:[[BR]]
''This field must be given if action is 2''
That sort of let's the user sit there feeling dumb. 2, where does that 2
come from and what does it mean ???
With the attached patch applied you can have error messages like:[[BR]]
''This field must be given if action is Forward Message to''
The label is passed as a third, optional, argument to the validators
constructor.
e.g.:[[BR]]
RequiredIfOtherFieldEquals('action', 2)
becomes:[[BR]]
RequiredIfOtherFieldEquals('action', 2, 'Forward Message to')
This is a backwards compatible change.
