.... When filling out a form, I have a value that is being passed to zope as "cost:int"
The form works fine when filled out correctly, but returns an error if this field is left blank. Now, this is the behaviour that I want, but I'm trying to track down where the error page comes from. This is different than "standard_error", and the really peculiar thing about it is that it pulls in the "standard_html" header and footer from the root folder, which happens to be a completely different host. The reason:
Form value conversions are almost the first thing, ZPublisher tries for a new request. It happens well before traversal. Therefore, only the root context is available. When you need more control over the error messages, tools such as "Formulator" or "dtml-contract (I think, a GPL product), will help you. Dieter
