Overriding <div class="fieldWithErrors">

[Dan Harper]

Does anyone know how to override the <div class="fieldWithErrors">
behaviour when a form field is incorrect?

Thanks,
Dan

This is what ActionView does:

module ActionView
  class Base
    @@field_error_proc = Proc.new{ |html_tag, instance| "<div class=\"fieldWithErrors\">#{html_tag}</div>" }
    cattr_accessor :field_error_proc
  end
end

You can set your own Proc. For example, in your config/environment.rb:

ActionView::Base.field_error_proc = Proc.new {|html_tag, instance|  %(<span class="field-with-errors">#{html_tag}</span>)}

Some more information may help.  Having the "div" tags makes my HTML
invalid, so instead a "span" tag would be more appropriate.

Thanks,
Dan

Cool thanks.  That worked a treat.

Actually no, it was inside a <p>.  I was using <p> to group form
sections together.
