similar to: Overriding <div class="fieldWithErrors">

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! 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

Is there a way to get rid of the divs around an error field. These divs are causing me headaches. Any suggestions :-)?

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, 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

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"

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 =

In my User form I have standard field to get user record attributes (first_name, last_name and email) I also have a select drop_down to choose a role from an array first_name, last_name and email are user record attributes, but I defined the role name as a virtual attribute validates_presence_of :email, :last_name attr_accessor :role_name validates_presence_of :role_name, :if =>

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

this is kinda trivial but I''m anal and it bugs me :) whenever there''s a error in the form the error field is wrapped with <div class="fieldWithErrors"> </div> this throws my form''s styling off because it puts too much space b/t fields and worse makes the form as wide as possible. How do I fix this? I''ve tried div.fieldWithErrors {

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

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''ve run across something that I''m not sure how to fix. This is with MSIE, Firefox doesn''t seem to have the same problem. When rails displays form fields in error using the css element fieldWithErrors, and the form field is enclosed in a table data tag, the entire background of the table data element is set to red instead of just the border of the form element.

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

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 '')

Just trying to implement a simple helper over the past few days had me really confused. messages = '''' messages << content_tag(:p, ''dave'') #=> &lt;p&gt;dave&lt;\p%;gt; Eventually I realised the original empty string was not html_safe message = ''''.html_safe message << content_tag(:p, ''dave'') #=>

What is the best way to override some of the FormHelper default options? Right now I''m adding this to the beginning of my environment.rb: ActionView::Helpers::InstanceTag::DEFAULT_TEXT_AREA_OPTIONS = { "cols" => 80, "rows" => 5 } Is that the way it''s supposed to be done? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message
