Custom validation and messages

Once again, Cruxade's validation library have been improved to allow cleaner code for custom validations and error message. The snippet below was taken from chrome://cruxade/content/validation.xul

var lv_oContainer = cruxade_ExtendContainer("container");
var lv_aValidator = [];
lv_aValidator["testdate"]={
_validate_ : "required :vCustomFunc",
_errmessage_: function(nErrCode){
if (nErrCode==10) return "Max Error number?";
return "custommessage";
},
CustomFunc:function(oItem,oSrc){
// return 0 if no error
return 10; // test case error
}
};
lv_aValidator["greetings"]={
_validate_ : "required typedigit",
_errmessage_:function(nErrCode){
if (nErrCode==2) return "Please give me a number.";
}
}
lv_oContainer.udf_bHookValidation(lv_aValidator);


Feel like hacking the code..?

The uda_validate options ":v" still works. ":m" is deprecated. Shall we carry on with the ":m" option? Tell me what you think.
