custom validation error messages..

Is there anyone here who could change the way the validation error message appear? I want to modify it but I don't know how to code js. What i want is something like instead of showing "This is a required field", it will just change the text box's border color to red (if it's a textbox/textarea).

TIA,
Mcometa

this should be done in the moovalidation.js file under components/com_chronocontact/js/

Thanks Max.

Yes I know the file to be edited. But i don't know how to code javascript.😀 Wishing that someone has done this before and hope that he/she could share his/her work. Hehe!

this is not easy to do anyway, but still not very hard, I will try to add it to the next release, we get V3 stable first then a new release with extra features.

Woah! Really? Thanks in advance. I will wait for that release😉

EDIT:

After reading this blog entry from Andrew where he discussed stuff about the field validation, I've figured out a way to disable the validation notice for the mean time.

On line 108 of the mooValidation.js file you will find:

'display':'block',

I replaced it with:

'display':'none',

to temporarily disable the notice.🙂 Walah~ It does not break my css anymore. Hehehe

Thanks,

Great, thanks for sharing!
