Validation errors: eNameRequired eCreatorRequired eDateRequired

METHODS

$e->invalid

set/get hash of validation error flags.

$bool = $e->is( $flag )

Test if this error's flag is equal to $flag. if this is a validation error also checks in the $e->invalid hash for $flag.

$bool = $e->isInvalid, $e->isExists, $e->isNonExistent, $e->isNameRequired, $e->isCreatorRequired, $e->isDateRequired

Test if this error's flag is equal to the named flag.

TODO

Refactor some of this out to OpenFrame::WebApp.

Write name(), date(), and creator() shortcuts to see if flag is associated with the given instance variable.
