Customize the Error/Validation markup and behavior?

  1. I have a client that wants very specific styling on the errors on validation. Most notably, they want an arrow floating off to the right (pointing left) with the error message of that particular field within that arrow. This is drastically different than what Gravity Forms does (which is append a class to the LI). I am probably going to need to use some styling and positioning that would not work with the standard markup that GF outputs. Is there a hook or filter that would allow me to change the output of the error statuses?

    I know you can change the messages, but beyond that, I'm not sure if you can change the output code. Here is the hooks we have for validation:

    Hope that helps.

  3. Kind of...can you give a more definitive answer, just so I know I am not wasting my time?
