QUICK ANSWER
A useful form error identifies the field, explains the problem and tells the visitor how to correct it. Keep entered information intact when safe to do so. Errors should help someone complete a task rather than make them guess which rule failed.

WORKING CHECKLIST
1. Name the affected field and correction.
2. Preserve safe entered values.
3. Make feedback keyboard accessible.
4. Distinguish rejection from uncertain acceptance.
