Rails: how to change the header (title) for the validation message
March 31st, 2010
The request was simple – how do you change the header (or title) for a validation message. Using nested resources, I ended up with a weird message:
3 errors prohibited this page[contact attributes] from being saved
Not very user friendly. So, I hit Google, blogs and IRC. So, here the solution I discovered.
<%= error_messages_for ‘c’, :header_message => “Please correct the errors below:”%>
Since this was part of a fields_for block, I had to add this to my controller method:
@c = @section.contact
