And I get a ! next to the filed. When I click that ! then I get to see te message. But I want to (next to this behaviour ) that i can display a message at the bottom of my form to tell the user that the form did not validate. (because users tend to oversee these ! even when they are in red) so is it possible to check that at least 1 (one) field is not validated (it doesn't matter witch) and then show a message? pe; situation now after submit; field1 myname * field2 myadres * field3 * ! field4 mytelephone * * required situation wanted after submit field1 myname * field2 myadres * field3 * ! field4 mytelephone * * required There was a problem validating your form Tnx "bart remmerie" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 20/12/2006 11:33 Please respond to users@cocoon.apache.org To users@cocoon.apache.org cc Subject Re: validation Dear Roel, In your form-definition, you can declare whether or not a field is required: <fd:field id="..." required="true|false" state="..."> (See http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/userdocs/widgets/widget_field.html) When a field has required="true", a message is displayed when the field is not filled out (on form-submit) (when using standard validation). Next to that, fields that have the required="true" attribute, are marked and a ! appears displaying the validation error (after attempted submission) Bart 2006/12/19, Roel Croonenberghs <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > Hello, > > I'm using cocoon widgets.
