Alert

How do I add formatting to alerts in Seaside?
I wrote a method that validates 3 values and then builds up a text message with all errors.
At the moment the 3 messages appear one after the other. I want to see them each on their own line.

crlf message doesn't work.
Adding <br/> doesn't work.

Do I need to render a page for this?

Actually, you dont need re render the entery page. You can use ajax to inform the errors. See the jquery examples

Best regards

The same way you do in other frameworks, with client side JavaScript,
thus not a Seaside issue.

alert("like\nthis")

Are you saying all my validation should be done client side?

It doesn't have to be, but it's much faster client-side.

I believe he said, if you want formatting in javascript, use javascript formatting. For new lines insert "\n", the *javascript* newline.
The string argument to the alert() function is going to be interpreted by a javascript engine. It doesn't understand html.
