Hi, i have this in a my form for registration user

\<% fields\_for “user[location\_attributes]”, @user.location do  
|location\_form| %\>  
\<%= location\_form.text\_field :full\_address %\>  
\<% end %\>

the location is required.

and so if i submit the form without insert the location the instruction:

\<%= error\_messages\_for :user %\>

print: location required.

but in the field there isn’t the div

around the field of the location like the others fields required

how i can connect the error of the location with the field:

thanks.
