Need to change Validation Error Messages

P

Paul B

I am trying to validate a form field (password) and have
put the value of the field in the properties, but when
testing and I test it incorrectly, the error message is
the standard error message code that reveals my value
that I am requiring people to enter to proceed thru the
form. How can this show just an alert that
says "Incorrect Password"? Any suggestions? I am new at
doing this, so I need as many steps as possible to help
me out here. Thanks.

Unfortunately, we have this being worked on internally
without the url assignment yet. I could send you the
line of code that is causing me the problem if that would
help. The easiest way to recreate the problem is to
create a web page via the wizard (Confirmation Page) and
then I inserted fields and then Form Field Properties -
Say 'yes' to Password and then selected 'Validate' where
I put in at the bottom of the box "Equal to" and
value "xxxxx".
During testing, the alert message I receive when I type
it in incorrectly is "Please enter a value equal
to "xxxx" in the "Password" field. It is the Internet
Explorer Error/Alert message.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

You will get that when you use that type of validation.
You should use ASP or PHP for what you want.
