Hi,

I’m currently developing a form for an object and its associated objects  
(1 to many).

With the function error\_messages\_for I can display the errors of the  
object and if the associate objects have errors. Unfortunately  
error\_messages\_for does identify which associate object has the errors.  
Is there a work around for error\_messages\_for?

Thanks.
