Question

I think its a simple question. Its about outputting errors.
This is my twig file:

    <table>
        <tr>
            <td>{{ form_label(form.dueDate) }}</td>
            <td>{{ form_widget(form.dueDate) }}</td>
            <td>{{ form_errors(form.dueDate) }}</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>{{ form_label(form.task) }}</td>
            <td>{{ form_widget(form.task) }}</td>
            <td>{{ form_errors(form.task) }}</td>
        </tr>
    </table>

Now each error displays (td with form_errors()) as:

< ul>< li>This value should not be blank< /li>< /ul>

My question is: I want to output error as plain text (without ul and li).

I know there is an example like this:

{% for error in errors %}
    {{ error.message }}        
{% endfor %}

But this will output errors one after another. I want to display them where specific input is:

< td>{{ myErrorFor form.dueDate }}< /td>

Big thanks for any help

You can customize how form errors render by providing your own form theme with a field_errors block.

You can do this for just the current template:

{# tell the form to look for theme blocks in the current template #}
{% form_theme form _self %}

{% block field_errors %}
{% for error in errors %}
{{ error.messageTemplate|trans(error.messageParameters, 'validators') }}<br>
{% endfor %}
{% endblock %}

{# the rest of your template... #}

Or by defining a global form theme in config.yml:

twig:
    form: { resource: "::form_theme.html.twig" }

In this case you would want to move the field_errors block above to app/Resources/views/form_theme.html.twig and the form_theme tag is no longer necessary.
