Hello all,
As you know, if you have a form with a validation error then you get a
really cool little "x" in the corner of the component with the error.
However, I have some rather complex forms and there are some validations
where I do not desire the little "x" error indicator on the component
itself. I want the validation error to prevent the user from
committing, just like it does now, and I also want the error message in
the top of the form, but I do not want the "x" on the component.
I'm thinking about implementing a mechanism where you can tell the
overlay helper not to "x" particular fields. Does anyone else see this
as a good idea? If so, would it make more sense to put the flag on a
field basis (maybe a flag in FieldMetadata or a userMetadata), a
validation-type basis (certain validations do not produce the 'x' -
maybe a new validation error type), or a component basis (a particular
client property on the component)? OR, maybe this functionality already
exists, and I just don't know about it? :)
Thanks,
Andy
