To assign a single message, I use following assignment: self.errors['my_field_name'] = ErrorList(['My error message']) For details see class ValidationError in django.newforms.util HTH, Peter --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Injecting validation errors into newforms
I'm using newforms to create self-validation input forms on my site. The
problem I'm running into is that I'd really, really like to be able to
associate errors from the form.clean() stage of validation with the fields
that are actually having problems. For example, I'd like something like:
class MyForm(forms.Form):
def clean(self):
myerrors = longprocessonremotemachine() # returns a dict
self.errorset.update(myerrors)
and then see inline error messages in the HTML form like:
Record ID: 1234
* This ID isn't present in our legacy system
instead of having all such errors bunched up at the top of the form. I'm
currently using:
def clean(self):
myerrors = longprocessonremotemachine() # returns a dict
raise forms.ValidationError('\n'.join(myerrors.values())
which does exactly that.
