similar to: ActionView::Base.field_error_proc not getting an error field

I just put this up on the wiki, and thought I''d share in case it''s useful to anyone else. This is handy if you don?t want to wrap your input elements inside a div when an error occurs, but instead want to add some sort of CSS style to fields with errors: ActionView::Base.field_error_proc = Proc.new do |html_tag, instance| msg = instance.error_message error_style =

Hi, i have some issues with the default rails error wrapping. It wraps errors in a div with class ''fieldsWithError'', which is not good practice in my eyes. Adding a class ''error'' to the field would be much nicer. My solution to the problem: build your own FormBuilder. Funny enough, i found no (nice) possibility to switch error wrapping off while using the

I wrote the following code in my form view : <li><label for="email">Email</label> <%= form.text_field :email, :size => "30" %> <span id=''email_error'' class=\''warning-text warning-text-indent\''><%= @user.errors.on(:email) %></span></li> the generated html code is the following : <span

Does anyone know how to override the <div class="fieldWithErrors"> behaviour when a form field is incorrect? Thanks, Dan

If a model doesn''t pass validation the field in the view is put under a <div class="field_with_errors">. But who create that div? field_text helper do it? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. To post to this group, send email to

Hi, I would like to ask how to override validation functionality in RoR? In active_record_helper.rb class there is "hardcoded" default html generated durning validation. If I will use {code:ruby} validates_presence_of :summary, :description {code} in my model class, there is html generated: {code:html} <div class="errorExplanation"

Hi! The topic can be a bit misleading, because it may suggest that i want to change css style. What i''d like to change is that normally, when there''s an error, rails creates a div element with the fieldWithErrors class as the parent of the input. I''d like to change this behavior, so the input element itself will have this class added to its current classes and

I found out that ActionView::Base.field_error_proc can be modified to output whatever error format I want for webform elements. At the moment I have it sitting in application_helper.rb and it works just fine. However, I feel that it isn''t the proper place for it. Where do you normally store modified classes? Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

in testing my app I just use the validations validates_presence_of :first_name, :last_name, :email validates_presence_of :academy, :message => "You must select an Academy" validates_presence_of :role, :message => "You must select a role" standard error_messages are fine for most of my fields , resulting in : 5 errors prohibited this data from being saved There

Hi, I have following models class User < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :addresses, :as =>:addressee, :dependent => :destroy accepts_nested_attributes_for :addresses, :allow_destroy => true end class Address < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :addressee, :polymorphic => true validates_presence_of :address1, :maximum => 50,:message => "Address1 cannot be

Hello I am trying to transform my web app into a 2.2 ready app, in my config/environment.rb I wrote Rails::Initializer.run do |config| ..... # disabling the surrounding div if validation error ActionView::Base.field_error_proc = Proc.new do |html_tag, instance| if html_tag.include?("class=") html_tag.sub(%r{(class=["''])}, ''\1invalid '')

Hi all. I have an attribute, job_role_id_short, that is being set in a form. This field has a custom validation on it, which does this if it fails: self.errors.add(:job_role_id_short, "cannot be blank") I want to add the error onto the attribute, so that the form builder will wrap the field in a fieldWithErrors div. However, the error it generates says "Job Role Short cannot

Hi everybody, I needed change field error rendering for some forms created with Rail''s form builder. I found solution by changing ActionView::Base::field_error_ proc to own before form and changing it back after form rendered. I don''t like this solution :) It''s not thread-safe (but it''s not so important, nobody really wants it :), but I don''t like

Hi, What do I have to override in order to be able to have the error message of each field in front of the input field? I haven''t been able to find anything similar on google. All I''ve found is how to override the container around the input field. ActionView::Base.field_error_proc = Proc.new { |html_tag, instance| "<span

I have a model layer containing Movie, Person, Role, and RoleType, making it possible to express facts such as "Clint Easterbunny is director of the movie Gran Milano". The relevant model and associations look like this class Movie < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :roles, :include => :role_type, :dependent => :destroy has_many :participants, :through => :roles, :source

I''ve got a publications table that contains an author_id foreign key and a pubrole_id foreign key. What I want to do is query the DB using AR so that I can get a list of all publications that belong_to a particular author, and group the results by the pubrole.role_name (Author, Joint Author, Editor, etc.) so that the results look something like: Author book1 info book2 info etc.

Hi, Camping 1.5.180 Ruby 1.8.6 It looks like Camping is choking on the ''rows'' attribute for input tags: input(:name => ''cuid'', :type => ''text'', :size => 10, :rows => 3) That will fail with: Markaby::InvalidXhtmlError no attribute `rows'' on input elements:

Could you be more specific about what is not working? -- Are your association methods between Role and User being set up correctly? (If not, make sure your statement is "has_and_belongs_to_many", and not "hasandbelongstomany".) -- Are you storing the data for role_name in the index? If so, can you see it there? I''m not familiar with the find_with_ferret

hello, I''am new to ROR and I have a problem. I have to models "rights" and "roles" on a has_and_belongs_to_many relationship, through "roles_rights" table.
