submitContentEdit dontShowFields behavior

[ah-arch]

1. When $dontShowFields is set for a radio field, i.e. #set($dontShowFields = "radioField") , the #submitContentEdit form cannot be submitted as content_form_macro.js's radioValid() function will never return true. The browser console shows:

"Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'name' of undefined" at: customErrorMessages[element[0].name]

It appears that element.name would work but not element[0].name.

1. When dontShowFields is set for a binary/image field, i.e. #set($dontShowFields = "thumbnail"), the resulting HTML is unusable:

<dd id="thumbnailFieldInput" class="formFieldInput">
<input type="hidden" name="thumbnail" id="thumbnail" value="com.dotmarketing.viewtools.content.FileAssetMap@3c4e9ea7[metaData={" imageheight":"85="" pixels","jpegcomment":"creator:="" gd-jpeg="" v1.0="" (using="" ijg="" jpeg="" v62),="" quality="75&quot;,&quot;component3&quot;:&quot;Cr" component:="" quantization="" table="" 1,="" sampling="" factors="" 1="" horiz="" vert","tiffbitspersample":"8","component1":"y="" 0,="" 2="" vert","yresolution":"1="" dot","width":"121","resolutionunits":"none","component2":"cb="" vert","contenttype":"image="" jpeg","wcomments":"creator:="" bits","filesize":"2439","height":"85","numberofcomponents":"3","xresolution":"1="" dot","tiff:imagewidth":"121","comment":"creator:="" pixels"},path="&lt;null">,map={fileAsset=C:\...jpg, host=3aeb786b-c009-4108-85e1-1b64540af7fa, sortOrder=0, stInode=33888b6f-7a8e-4069-b1b6-5c1aa9d0a48d, showOnMenu=false, lastReview=null, ...jpg=...jpg, languageId=1, disabledWYSIWYG=[], folder=12b3255d-3368-4580-80bd-047dcc5cb87e, reviewInternal=null, nextReview=null, modDate=2013-05-09 11:02:04.0, owner=dotcms.org.1, modUser=dotcms.org.1, inode=56b98b63-7772-48ff-88a9-0c8e89371b75, identifier=d723cdb5-3e0c-490d-be48-42c603ac91f7},lowIndexPriority=false]"&gt;<span id="alertthumbnail" class="errorMessages"></span>
<span id="alertthumbnail" class="errorMessages"></span>
</dd>

What shows up on the screen will be the part after a > at path="<null"> closes the input prematurely, and I don't think the hidden input field would save the file input field properly.
