John,
Thanks for your reply.
As you've described the solution, it sounds like it would also put the
message(s) beside the field in error. What I'm looking for is to keep the
messages at the top of the page (like standard html:errors tag does) and
within the body of the form include just a single image before each field in
error, simply to use as an indicator.
Thanks,
Michelle
