# Form.hasErrors ViewHelper `<f:form.hasErrors>` {#typo3-fluid-form-haserrors}

ViewHelper which checks whether a property has validation errors, implemented as a condition like an "if" construct. Errors of sub properties count as well, so "author" is true if only "author.email" has an error.

```
  <div class="{f:form.hasErrors(for: 'blog.title', then: 'has-error')}">
    <f:form.textfield property="title" />
  </div>

  <f:form.hasErrors for="blog.title">
    <f:then>
       The title has at least one validation error.
    </f:then>
    <f:else>
       The title is fine.
    </f:else>
  </f:form.hasErrors>

```

Use `<f:form.validationResults>` instead to access the error objects themselves.
