hide error messages is returning NONE value for messages

[Michel Hayek]

hi folks,

i have created custom error messages for each of my fields, the good news is that i don't see system error message and once the user submit my custom errors appear.

the problem is one i load the page, i see all custom errors set to the value of "None". is there any workaround? i tried to set error fields ='' but didn't work

Thanks in advance

db.py:

db.define_table('t_resumes',

                Field('f_firstname', 'string', required=True, label='First Name '),

                Field('f_lastname', 'string', required=True, label='Last Name '),

                Field('f_phonenumber', 'integer', required=True, label='Phone Number '),

                Field('f_emailaddress', required=True,unique=True, label='Email Address '),

                Field('f_language1', required=True, label='Language '),

                Field('f_language2', required=False, label='Language '),

                Field('f_language3', required=False, label='Language '),

                Field('f_language4', required=False, label='Language '),

                Field('f_language5', required=False, label='Language '),

                Field('f_currentemployer','string', required=False, label='Current Employer '),

                Field('f_lastemployer', 'string', required=False, label='Last Employer '),

                Field('f_educationlevel', 'string', required=False, label='Education Level '),

                Field('f_securityclearance', required=True, label='Security Clearance '),

                Field('f_militaryexperience',required=True, label='Military Experience '),

                Field('f_specialcertifications1', 'string', required=False, label='Special Certification '),

                Field('f_specialcertifications2', 'string', required=False, label='Special Certification '),

                Field('f_specialcertifications3', 'string', required=False, label='Special Certification '),

                Field('f_specialcertifications4', 'string', required=False, label='Special Certification '),

You'll have to make display of the error conditional on whether the error exists:

{{if form.errors.f_firstname:}}<td width="34%" class="formcell3">{{=form.errors.f_firstname}}</td>{{pass}}
