Hi 

Umbraco Contour version 3.0.17

Umbraco v6.1.6 (Assembly version: 1.0.5021.24867)

I need a litle help with this, im quiet sure it is simple.

I need validation on the contour chekboxlist. There must be chosen 2 and only 2 fields.

I have pasted the whole code from "\Umbraco\Plugins\umbracoContour\scripts\Frontend" - in the middle there is the code for validation off the checkbox.

It works as expected, it checks for the amount checked and gets an error when there is only one checked and an error if there is checked more than 2.

The message is ofcource displayed in an alert box.

My question is, how to display the textstring in the Contour error field, i cant figure it out :-(
I´m quiet sure it is simple

 if (n > 2) {
                    alert("Please select up to 2 attributes.");
                    return false;
                }

var contourFieldValues;

(function ($) {



    $.validator.setDefaults({
        ignore: ":hidden"
    });

    $.validator.unobtrusive.adapters.addBool("requiredcb", "required");

    $.validator.addMethod('contour_selectonefromlist', function (value, element) {
        var valid = false;
        $("input", $(element).closest(".checkboxlist, .radiobuttonlist")).each(function (i) {
            if ($(this).is(':checked')) { valid = true; }
        });
        return valid;
    });

    $.validator.unobtrusive.adapters.addBool("requiredlist", "contour_selectonefromlist");

    $.validator.addMethod('contour_regex', function (value, element) {

        var regex = $(element).attr("data-regex");
        var val = $(element).val();
        if (val.length == 0) { return true; }
        return val.match(regex);
    });

    $.validator.unobtrusive.adapters.addBool("regex", "contour_regex");

    $(function () {
