Customize Alert Messages

[jpmaster]

Hi there, and thanks in advance for your help.

I´m using FP2002 and I need to customize the alert
messages that are displayed when you miss a required
field in a form so they will read something like "Please
type your Email address" instead of all the mumble jumble
they usualy display.

How do I do that?

Regards,

JPmaster

Hi JP: Open web, highlight field you want required info, right click, go
form field validation,check data length require, enter what you want user to
see at top.

Hi JP,

Once the page is saved, you'll have to open it in another editor and change
the verbiage in the code.

Note, if you open and save the page in FP it will revert back to the
default.

That is the field name only. It does not change the default message.
