In my case I had a table field called 'DTE_REQUIRED' which was causing the hidden validator to fire (e.g. '_required'). Because this name was being used throughout my application and database (CFMs, views, triggers, procedures, etc.) it was not practical to change it.

To get around this problem I just added a hidden input text tag and set it with a benign value (e.g. ) which satisfies the hidden validator. This fix should also work for the other validators. For example a field named 'MY_DATE' could be used by adding an appropriate input tag to fool the validator (e.g. ).

I realize that the last thing you want to hear from a Macromedia employee is "it worked for me," but I tried this code and ... it worked for me.

In response to malkau and Rodrigo Alarcon:
We have tested this example with ColdFusion MX 6.1, and it works as described on this page.
The problem may be related to how you have your error handlers configured.
We cannot provide support though Livdocs and suggest posting this issue to the online forums: http://webforums.macromedia.com/coldfusion/.

when I tried the above sample code the error generated said: * A value must be entered for the SALARY field. * The salary must be a number. * A value must be entered for the STARTDATE field. The 'required' messages for the StartDate and Salary should have been: * You must enter a start date. * You must enter a salary. I'm not sure why the _required thing did not work...
