Re: display validation errors with on top of page?

[Martin Marinschek]

there was the same 'problem' with the output label before, than we fixed it, and obviously forgot about doing it for the message as well.

can you open a jira issue?

thx,

Hi..

  Using Weblogic 8.1..


  Basically, I'd like to use <x:message>  on the top of the page &
have the fields that I'm validating be stuffed away lower in
panelGrids.

I have:

<x:message for=""> <h:outputLabel for="" rendered="false" value="Name"/>

near the top.

and

    <h:inputText id="phoneExt" required="true"   ...

further below buried in few <h:panelGrid>s

I get the following exception when trying to render the page:

javax.faces.FacesException: Could not render Message. Unable to find
component 'phoneExt'


This seems to be a myfaces bug, because if I remove the <x:message
for="" and switch on rendering of the <h:outputLabel,  the
outputLabel renders itself & doesn't complain about not finding a
matching phoneExt.      It seems that when <x:message>  tries the
same, it dies complaining that it can't find the matching label.



Any ideas?

Thank you-
Matt
