Is there any way to associate notices with individual form elements?
For example, if they enter an invalid social security number, it would
be nice if the error would appear next to the field rather than at one
specific spot.

[Cornelius Brümmer]

In your templates you can use the "local" messages, described in the
wiki-page:

Somewhere in a template, a table-row for username-input:
<tr>
<td>Username:</td>
<td><u:inputsomthing /></td>
<td><lift:msg id="username_msgs"/></td>
</tr>

... in your Snippets you can address this specific lift-Message-"field"
by: S.notice("username_msgs", "Wow nice username") ... or if you want to
get angry: S.error("username_msgs", "Username completely inacceptable")

... and you can have an abritrary number of lift:msg-items.

Sidenote:
If you use Blueprint, there are some predefined CSS-Classes for:

Quote from screen.css (or forms.css):
.error {... }
.notice {... }
.success {... }

to get them used automagically change the <lift.msg />-thing above to:

<lift:msg id="username_msg" noticeClass="notice" errorClass="error" />

and your notes will be funky and colorfull.
