apex:messages
All messages that were generated for all components on the current page. If an <apex:message> or <apex:messages> component is not included in a page, most warning and error messages are only shown in the debug log.
This component supports HTML pass-through attributes using the "html-" prefix. Pass-through attributes are attached to the generated <ul> tag. (Each message is contained in a list item.)
