Hi

I am using the new forms module "Forms for editors". But how can I translate the validation message that appears when a madatory field is not filled out? The validation message is "Please fill out this field.". I have tried making a translation in the translation system in MC, but it doesn't seem to work!

Hi Lars & Oleg

It is actually not a bug. In Forms for editors when you set the required checkbox on a field, it uses the HTML 5 required attribute and the message is coming from the browser and not a Dynamicweb script. So the message will have the language of the browser.

In the next version of forms for editors, the module will have a much more complex validation engine - including the possibility to write your own message.

You can manipulate the message it seems: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5272433/html5-form-required-attribute-set-custom-validation-message
