Hi,
In registration example, when I leave blank all the fields and submit the form,
following error comes up:
* j_id2:j_id6: Validation Error: Value is required.
* j_id2:j_id8: Validation Error: Value is required.
* j_id2:j_id10: Validation Error: Value is required.
What I see from this is, all the messages listed together without clearly
addressing the fields causing the error. "j_id2:j_id6" does not mean anything
to the user, I beleive. I found that the messages came from JSF RI's
Messages.properties file[1].
To surpass this, I copied messages_en.properties[2] found in seam-gen/resources
under to WEB-INF/classes. This time I got following:
* value is required
* value is required
* value is required
Well, no "j_id2:j_id6" this time. But, again, there is no clear indication of
what error message belongs to which field.
I am not satisfied in either case, actually. What I expect is to see label
names associated with their own messages:
messages_en.properties
javax.faces.component.UIInput.REQUIRED=value is required
registration.form.username.label=Username
registration.form.real_name.label=Real Name
registration.form.password.label=Password
Output
* Username value is required
* Real Name value is required
* Password value is required
I also expect Seam to show i18 label names and messages, as well:
messages_tr.properties
javax.faces.component.UIInput.REQUIRED=alani zorunludur
registration.form.username.label=Kullanici Adi
registration.form.real_name.label=Gercek Ad
registration.form.password.label=Sifre
Output
* Kullanici Adi alani zorunludur
* Gercek Ad alani zorunludur
* Sifre alani zorunludur
But, if I wanted to show error messages immediately after the field which is
the reason of error, "value is required" alone would be enough. Registration
form in booking example uses this approach.
In conclusion, two questions come into my mind:
- Should I prefer error messages show up nearby the fields as in booking
example?
- If I choose to show all the messages together, as in registration example,
does Seam allow me to show i18 label names embedded in the error messages? If
yes, how?
