   ->addElement($submit);

I have edited your post to be more readable, but it is still not very clear what your actual question is. You added a code sample without any description of the actual section that is causing you trouble. If you want an answer to this question, please be more descriptive. — Aron Rotteveel

Hi, I have the same problem: error message from validator doesn't appear. This is only when (german) umlauts are within the message, otherwise it works fine. Any ideas? — dforce

I use a construct as the following to define element parameters:

$this->addElement('text', 'o_title', array(
        'label'      => 'title....',
        'required'   => true,
        'filters'    => array('StringTrim','WordLength'),
        'validators' => array(
            array('validator' => 'StringLength', 'options' => array(0, 40,'utf8',   
                                  'messages'=>array('stringLengthTooLong'=>'Text too long'))),
                   array('NotEmpty', true,  
                             array('messages'=>array('isEmpty'=>"Field must not be empty")))
            ),
        'maxlength' => 40,
        'decorators' => array('Uniform'),
        'description'=> 'input only 40 chars'
    ));

Validators are specified in two ways in the above code .... Each validator can have many messages ...
