Ordering Error Message

Is there a way to set the order of error messages so they appear in the order as the form?

 

Example in the view I have:

 

<?php if (isset($errors) && !empty($errors)) echo $this->Element('errors/errors', array('errors' => $errors)); ?>

 

Element:

 

<ul class="errors">

       <?php foreach ($errors as $field => $error) : ?>

              <li><?php echo $error[0]; ?></li>

       <?php endforeach ?>

</ul>

 

But the form might have fields like firstname, lastname, email, password,

 

But if during testing none of the fields pass I would like to set the order of the errors to match the form field order.

Seems wrong to display lastname error, then email, then security , then firstname.

Would like to keep it consistent with the order of the form fields.

 

Thanks,

Dave
