Howard M. Lewis Ship closed TAPESTRY-554:
-----------------------------------------
Fix Version: 4.0
Resolution: Fixed
To make use of this feature, you need to add a little JavaScript:
document.forms.myform.events.invalid_field_handler = function(event, field,
message)
{
. . .
}
The event is the FormSubmitEvent
The field is the DOM object for the field being validated
The message is the message to present to the user
> Hook needed on client side to control how validation errors are presented to
> the user

> Key: TAPESTRY-554
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-554
> Project: Tapestry
> Type: Improvement
> Components: Framework
> Versions: 4.0
> Reporter: Howard M. Lewis Ship
> Assignee: Howard M. Lewis Ship
> Fix For: 4.0
>
> Right now, client-side JavaScript functions such as required() and
> validate_min_length() invoke a method handle_invalid_field().
> handle_invalid_field() calls window.alert() to display the message, then sets
> event.abort and event.cancelListeners.
> event.cancelListeners is important, otherwise each invalid field will raise
> the alert window!
> However, if you can imagine a much more sophisticated scheme, where we use
> DHTML to update the page and display errors as HTML (rather than a popup
> window) .... then we need a way to hook handle_invalid_field(), so that we
> can perform a different operation.
> My first thought was that we could simply provide an overriding
> implementation of the function ... however, that doesn't handle cases where a
> page has multiple forms.
> My thoughts are to add a method to FormSubmitEvent for alterting the user
> about errors; this would delegate to a function provided by FormEventManager.
> This function could be set by a Script's <initilaization> block.
