Hey Adam thanks. So basically one of the things I did was when I am on page
x I validate using client side JS validation either written myself or
html:javascript doesn't really metter but both of those two methods pop up
an alert and doesn't actually put it right in the page like html:errors
does. But then yeah it actually works I still have target there and it opens
a new window only when validation succeded thats fine is there any way to
make javascript display html:errors like right in page and not in a pop up I
looked at html:errors it doesn't have an id or styleId attribute which means
I can't do my document.getElementByID('id').innerHTML = 'some error'. So
what do you recommend. By the way thanks for your input.
