Form Generation Library

I have a question about this great code, I hope somebody can help me. I read the user guide but couldn't find anything related.

I have one field with two validations:

->text('nombre', 'Nombre' ,'required|numeric')

I would like to set custom error messages for each one of these validations, based on a couple of tests that I did I assume that if I set two set_error lines they will be assigned in the same order as in the assignment above:

->set_error('nombre', 'The field is required, please enter a value')
->set_error('nombre', 'Only numbers are allowed')

The assumption that I made about the order of the messages seems to work ok but I'd like clarification if that is how it's supposed to be done.

And the second "issue" is that if I try to submit the form without populating a value the numeric validation kicks in instead of the required. In other words if I click on Submit without a value the error message will be "Only numbers are allowed" instead of "The field is required ..."

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
