Validation Show If

The Validation Show If server behavior is applied to selected text or page elements to display them when specified validation conditions exist. It is applied to the page specified in the Server Validation server behavior as the redirect location when a validation fails. The error display it is applied to is specific to the validation conditions configured for that application of the Server Validation.
