Hi Guys

How can i show a FormIT error inside a placeholder form tag? Is this possible?
I´m using the below code, but the form just show me a message <span class=. Why?
```
<label for="name">Name*</label>
<input type="text" name="name" id="name" value="[[!+fi.name]]" placeholder="[[!+fi.error.name]]" />
```

I think because the standard error template of FormIt (param &errTpl=``) looks like
```
<span class="error">[[+error]]</span>
```
according to http://rtfm.modx.com/display/ADDON/FormIt, and because there's no HTML allowed in attributes you get that weired output, try to just set template like &errTpl=`[[+error]]` and see if it works.
