Re: Over riding the default error messages

I'm not sure but I think the error page itself is generated
in Survey/Slask.pm, sub IsError().
There it should be possible to change the style of the errormessage.

The message is created in Survey::Component::_XXX_::GetCheckValue().
If nothing other helps, replace the thing with
     $sub->{ERROR} = lprint("The question with caption") ...
with your own message.
