+=item C<error>
+
+A string representing the error code thrown by Bugzilla. This string
+matches the C<error> variable in C<global/user-error.html.tmpl> and

+=item C<message>
+
+If the error mode is set to C<ERROR_MODE_WEBPAGE>, you get a reference to

+looking at the content of the table cell whose ID is C<error_msg>.
+If the error mode is not set to C<ERROR_MODE_WEBPAGE>, you get a reference
