Re: [PEAR] QuickForm2 catch errors

Here's the essential snippet from the docs file:

$renderer = HTML_QuickForm2_Renderer::factory('default')
    ->setOption(array(
        'group_hiddens' => true,
        'group_errors'  => true,
        'required_note' => '<strong>Note:</strong> Required fields are
marked with an asterisk (<em>*</em>).'
    ))
    ->setTemplateForId('submit', '<div class="element">{element} or <a
href="/">Cancel</a></div>')
    ->setTemplateForClass(
        'HTML_QuickForm2_Element_Input',
        '<div class="element<qf:error>
error</qf:error>"><qf:error>{error}</qf:error>' .
        '<label for="{id}" class="qf-label<qf:required>
required</qf:required>">{label}</label>' .
        '{element}' .
        '<qf:label_2><div class="qf-label-1">{label_2}</div></qf:label_2></div>'
    );

echo $form->render($renderer);
?>

If you look at the setTemplateForClass method, you can see the error html:

<div class="element<qf:error> error</qf:error>"><qf:error>{error}</qf:error>

So all you have to do is move the html around however you like.
