Hi Olivier,
Even when I give a string it works.
Sorry,
My fault, I looked at the woody classes, and that's true that the CForms 
flowscript wrapper can take an Object with setValidationError.


But my doubt was whether
setValidationError works when I use the below code to get the submit
event of the form and perform validation
--> if(formObjWid.getSubmitWidget().equals(formObjWid.widName))
        test();
For me the above method didn't work. I had to use onActivate for the
submit widget and set the validation error.
So my question can validation errors be set only when we use onActivate
for the submit widgets.
Since I'm not familiar with the CForms enhancement, I can't help you 
further.

But I don't understand why you want to add a validation error on a 
submit widget, instead of setting it to the field that causes the error 
to happen with it's bad value...

Hi Anand,
The widget.setValidationError() takes a ValidationError object, and not
a string [1].
You should try this :
formWidObj.widName.setValidationError(
     new
Packages.org.apache.cocoon.woody.datatype.ValidationError("Error"));

ield.html#setValidationError(org.apache.cocoon.forms.validation.Validati
onError)

Hi,

I want to set a Validation Error for a form widget. I am able to do it
when I use formWidObj.widName.onActivate = test(formWidObj);


But when I use the following I am unsuccessful in setting the
validation
error.

if(formObjWid.getSubmitWidget().equals(formObjWid.widName))
        test();

Where test() is

test(formWidObj) {
        return function() {
                formWidObj.widName.setValidationError("Error")'
                return false;
        }
}
widName is a 'submit' widget.

Is it that validation errors can be set only when we use onActivate.
Or is it that I am trying to set validation error in a wrong way when
I
use getSubmitWidget()?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Anand
