Morning,
Not sure if the message i posted yesterday got to you guys. I am going to type out the question again.
Initial Question:
For example, when i do not enter a password when i try to sign in to my yahoo account, i get an error in red on the same page, beside the password text box
e.g: https://login.yahoo.com/config/mail?.intl=us
So my question is, are we able to generate the error message just beside the text box.
Because from what i understand, we are always brought to an error page, that contains the error message.
If we are able to, where i can find out how?
MANY THANKS! ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED.
Reply from EE:
As for the error messages, no, those can’t be displayed on the same page ‘out of the box’. You might could do it with an iframe or ajax or some other creative solution. I’m pretty sure I’ve seen it done with an iframe. But the default setup, user messages are displayed in a new window.
Follow up Question:
Sorry for not being clear. I am not the actual person doing the programming, so please excuse my non technical terms, and am seeking clarification as my web dev’s say the following is impossible to do.
1. Is it possible to have iframe or AJAX in the current version of EE, as my web dev says otherwise. I understand that this cannot be done out of the box
2. So assuming i have a password text box. When the user enters a password incorrectly, i want the message “incorrect password” to be displayed beside the password text box? So this can be done?
3. If so, can you please guide me to the resources on how we can go about doing it. Thanks.
