Frequently Asked Questions

Where does the error icon belong in form validation?
Inline, next to or inside the failing field, with the message directly below it. A single error icon at the top of a long form forces users to hunt for the actual problem.
Circled X or octagon for errors?
The circled X is the standard for software errors. The octagon borrows from stop signs and suits security blocks and hard prohibitions. Both must always be paired with text; color and shape alone exclude some users.
