Return Custom Message to User if Validation fails.

chorton

Is there a way to return a custom message back to the user if the validation fails. For instance if we require a 4 digit year and they only enter 2 digits. Is it possible to return a javascript type message stating something to the effect of "You must enter a 4 digit year"?

If you create a custom parameter page, you should be able to handle parameters however you'd like. Check out the following post in the devShare on creating a custom parameter page.<br />
