[TYPO3-ect] Error Object

[Daniel Brüßler]

Hi Elmar,

yes, I look at the validation in bananas tomorrow.

++------

When I read "Error Messenger" I think at ICQ or Yahoo Messenger :-)

I think we should take a look how it is named in the PEAR-stuff
http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.html.html-quickform.php#package.html.html-quickform.values.validation

Hm. I'm not shure, if it's too complex to integrate this. But why not,
it could be a big help for FE-extensions, if it is simple enough to use.

++---

PEAR has this path in the moment:
/typo3conf/ext/bypear/PEAR/

would be cool to put a VERY slim pear-directory in the
standard-extension. So it's no problem, when many admins do not use it.

The location /typo3/sysext/ would be nice,
but the problem with /typo3/sysext/ is, that a mass-hoster will have
problems with a global pear-directory. Because every admin wants to have
other stuff and the dependencies with PEAR are handled very strict
(checks also the version-number).

=> I prefer a local path like /typo3conf/ext/bypear/PEAR/ or better
/typo3conf/ext/pear/PEAR/ . That follows the EXT-addon-naming what we
talked about some days ago in the mailinglist.

The PEAR-forms-lib has got very good features
* On request javascript code generation for client-side validation.
* XHTML compliant generated code
* Numerous mixable and extendable validation rules
* The addon-class "HTML_QuickForm_Renderer_Tableless" (but just beta in
the moment)

What's with this message - It could be important:
NOTICE: development of HTML_QuickForm version 3 is frozen. Please submit
feature requests for HTML_QuickForm2 package

Maybe interesting for you is also this class:
HTML_QuickForm_Controller (it's stable)

=> the big advantage of the PEAR-class is, that many projects use it, so
there's a big community who cares about it.

the forms from cakePHP

Hm. I know nothing about that in the moment. Maybe it's easier to
integrate, because also MVC-concept.

kind regards
