About rails error_messages

Rails

Hi all,

I have a web form:

<% form_for @comment do |f| %>
<%= f.error_messages %>

<%= f.label :author %> <%= f.text_field :author, :size => 20 %> %>

<%= f.label :email %> <%= f.text_field :email, :size => 20 %>

<% end %>

When the validation fails, the labels will be wrapped into

, so
labels and fields are in different lines, that is not what I want. If
you have the agile web development book, please turn to p.151 (the
source code is in p.146 and [1]), how did the author archived that?
Thanks.

There’s lots of good info about how to customize the error message
output here:
