It may seem I don't google enough before posting here, but that's not
the case:)
I refactored my validations according to the Tech. Arch.'s sample app
[1] and rescue errors if any in my controller and then I've made a
custom "flash" like notification in my form rendered in the view.
Now I have the desired behavior: if there are any errors, the review
form isn't created and the user gets the list of error's and a chance to
correct their input before submitting again.

Hi guys,
I need help with validations, or to be more exact, what happens after
validations fail.
Here are my AR validations in the model:
class Reviewform < Base
validates :project_number, :subproject_number, :translator,
:reviewer, :no_tus, :allocated_time,
:time_spent, presence: true
end
These work and produce standard error output in the browser, which is
ugly for the end user. I'm struggling with making a nicer error message.
Here's my controller:
class FormNew
def get
@reviewform = Reviewform.new
render :new
end
def post
@reviewform = Reviewform.create(common_attributes)
if @reviewform.errors
render :error
else
end
end
end
I check if there are any errors for the @reviewform and then I want to
render the error view. However, it doesn't work. I get:
Mab::Mixin::Error at /form/new
Tags can only be written within a `mab { }`-block
If I change render with redirect Index it works.
What I'd need to do is if the above validations pass, then create the
form, otherwise stay on the page and let the user now there are
errors. Like the flash in rails. Can it be done in some way?
Thank you.

seba
