thanks Christopher,  i'm going to give that a try.

I was wondering if its possible to retrieve a list of input fields
that don't validate and pass these to a javascript function from
within the controller.
This way i can apply an effect to all of these using scriptaculous.
This will be executed after the user presses submit ofcourse
