Mark Lundquist updated COCOON-1951:
-----------------------------------
Attachment: 1951.patch
This patch implements the enhancement essentially as described. The new
element is
<fd:message-label>.
> Widget label text for validation error message should be separately
> configurable in form definition

> Key: COCOON-1951
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COCOON-1951
> Project: Cocoon
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Blocks: Forms
> Affects Versions: 2.2-dev (Current SVN), 2.1.10-dev (current SVN)
> Reporter: Mark Lundquist
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: 1951.patch

> The <fd:widget/label> element drives the display of a widget label in the
> rendering of a form. The CForms error messages (validation or missing
> required field) also use the <label> element, but what makes sense in the
> context of displaying the form fields doesn't *necessarily* make sense in the
> context of the error message.
> In my current case, I have widgets with ids "fromName", "fromEmail",
> "toName", and "toEmail". These widgets actually have the following labels,
> respectively: "Name", "Email", "Name", "Email". That works because in my
> template, I have two HTML <fieldset>s with <legend>s "From" and "To", which
> contain <fi:group>s containing the respective widgets. If these requred
> fields are missing, the error message says "Email: missing required field"
> (or whatever); I would rather it said "Recipient email address: ..." or
> something like that, instead.
> Another scenario would be a CAPTCHA validator. These are often labeled with
> something like "Type in the security code displayed to the right". In an
> error message, it would be better to say "Security code" or something like
> that.
> Suggestion: a new element <fd:error-label> as a child of <fd:widget> that (if
> present) overrides <fd:label> in error messages.
