Sorry, in the template itself, not when the widget is actually
instantiated. The widget is passed to the template through
templ_context, which I understand is the current accepted method for
non-data objects. In the template the widget is realized like
tmpl_context.my_compound(dict(person_form=dict(firstname=firstname...
etc.

class PersonForm(TableForm):
show_error = True
fields = [
TextField('firstname', validator=NotEmpty, label_text='First
Name:', show_error=True),
TextField('lastname', validator=NotEmpty(msg="test"),
label_text='Last Name:'),
TextField('phone', validator=NotEmpty, label_text='Phone:'),
#FIXME: Validator for Phone
HiddenField('method'),
HiddenField('term'),
]
submit_text='Add Person'
Then add @validate(form=pform, error_handler=...) to the appropriate
controller methods.
