Question

I need to validate that cell values are floats, that part is easy. What I’m not sure about is how to get form_set_error to highlight the offending cell and only that cell. Currently entering form_set_error(‘field_breakdown_table’, ….) highlights all cells, obviously. I’ve tried crazy things like
“‘field_breakdown_table’][‘widget’][‘default_value’][0][‘tablefield’][‘cell_” . $row . “_” . $column . “‘”
but haven’t seen anything work yet. Has anyone ever gotten this to work?

Here is a link to the tablefield module

Please let me know if you need more info.

I posted the solution I found for this question (this is the issue I posted in the tablefield module issue queue) in the form_set_error documentation.
