Hello Jonas,
Can you show us your custom form, the one that does not work. Validation
and form processing are done before the view is execued therefore it cannot
affect form validation and processing. perhaps that is something in the
custom form that prevents error messages from being displayed.
I do not understand the second question. The index function returns all
records for each table.
