Re: [validator] client side validation: alternative for alert()?
what about changing the client code that is shipped to add an extension point so that this functionality can easiliy be added? In my case I just need Explorer support so that is easily done... Wouter in a way that allows people to add this functionality if they wanted to, without making structure changes to the code.

Re: [validator] client side validation: alternative for alert()?
There is already a way to customize the javascript for a validation rule. Just alter the code between javascript/javascript in the validator-rules.xml file.
