Q: Issue resolving Forms required fields display and/or Forms submission page. Goldmine limits fields to 9 characters starting with the letter U. I have a lengthy form and many fields. If I conform to these limits the user will have difficulty determining the field missing a required entry. Is there any way to display Field Labels in the form corresponding to these required Fields in a required field error screen or the Form Submission Page.

A: You cannot use field labels as the script has no way of knowing which labels apply to which fields. However you could set up your own message pages instead of using the default messages. When the message page is called (ie the page for required field) the reason is also sent in the url as a get field such as ?reason=fieldname. This allows you to add some script to the message page to display any message you like based on the reason value. To do this you would need to be able to write some php script to display the required label that matches the reason field. More information is included in the messages section of the help file.
