I assume you mean "Page Template" when you say "Template"?

In this case, "template" is the template, "template/id" its
id and "template/title" its title.

These checks and conversions are done before traversal starts.
Therefore, the "standard_error_message" in Zope's "Root Folder" is
used. There is no way to use a different "standard_error_message"
for such errors.

You may look at "Formulator". It provides much better form
validation facilities than ZPublisher.
