How to change location of error messages

[radman63]

By default, error messages that get generated when someone doesn't sign a form are displayed at the very beginning of the form, using the markup

. Unfortunately, my signature pads are at the bottom of the form, so users that forget to sign the form never see the error message and just keep clicking the "submit" button.

How do I re-position the error messages so they display close to where the signature pad is displayed? Thanks.

Regards, Bill

You could try using the onFormError callback function to create your own error message on the form where you'd like to see it.

You wouldn't happen to have an example of this, would you? Unfortunately, I'm a non-programmer that sometimes has to deal with programming. Thanks.

To start you can do something like this:

$('.sigPad').signaturePad({
  onFormError: function (errors, context, settings) {
    // In here you can write the code needed to insert the error message
  }
});
