Please send your e-mails to the list only once, not twice.
The default QF renderer renders the errors above each element. Are you
overriding the element template(s)? Check the default element template
for how the error is displayed.

great using sessions and HTML QuickForms for individual pages. The problem=
arises in the formatting of the error codes though.. This is happening be=
cause unfortunately there is a lot of unique code for many of the fields. =
So the layout of the QuickForm is lots of addElement('input', ....) fields,=
followed by scattered addElement('static', ....). Because I'm inserting s=
o many static elements, when the form validates, it shoots out the error at=
the top of the form. I'm thinking right now it could probably be done by =
using individual addElement fields for every input field. I'd just like to =
clean it up and have more control over where the error fields are printed o=
ut, and with all the static content it looks like I'll be making all of the=
addElement's unique, and include the static content that way. That sound =
like what you guys would do? Please advise and thanks in advance.
