Error Messages on Valid Field

[Joel Trunick <Jo...@SmartPrice.com>]

Is there a way to change the default messages for ValidField?

ie. Change "Must fill in zip code" to "Please tell us your zip code"

This is just on the edge of my competence at the moment, so you
are warned:

    protected void setErrorField(String componentId, String message) {
        IFormComponent field = (IFormComponent) getComponent(componentId);
        IValidationDelegate delegate = getValidationDelegate();
        delegate.setFormComponent(field);
        delegate.record(new ValidatorException(message));
    }

    public void listenerMethod(IRequestCycle cycle) {
       try {
          do something;
       } catch (Exeption e) {
          // handle
          setErrorField("passwordField", "Invalid password, dork!");
       }
    }

See Vlib for details.

You can create your own sublcass of validation delegate and override
record(). 

Or, you can create your own subclass of StringValidator.

Hm.  A good feature enhancement would be to allow easier overriding of
validator error messages.
