Houston, we've got problem.

I've created forms without any html wrapping around (without html, body, etc, just the pure forms), everything is okay but when I submit them the validation errors only appearing after the second refresh, not the first one. Eg. I forgot to fill the Title field, which is required, then I the form is come back, highlights the title textfield with red, but the "Title field is required" message only appears when I refresh the form.

I've played with it a little, in the hook_validate() i can dump the $_SESSION['messages'], which is not empty, but in the returning form it doesn't appear just only next time.

function foo_menu() {
  $items['foo/add'] = array(
    'title' => t('New foo'),
    'page callback' => 'foo_form_nude',
    'access arguments' => array('access content'),
  );
  return $items;
}

function foo_form_nude() {
  echo drupal_get_form('foo_form');
  exit();
}

function foo_form($form_state) {
  $status_messages = theme('status_messages', 'status');
  $error_messages = theme('status_messages', 'error');

  $form['title'] = array(
    '#type' => 'textfield',
    '#title' => t('Title'),
    '#requried' => TRUE,
  );

   $form['status_error_message'] = array(
    '#type' => 'markup',
    '#value' => '<div class="budget_editor_messages">'. $status_messages . $error_messages .'</div>',
  );

  return $form;
}

When I call foo/add , I see only the pure form, which works perfectly, except that I missed to fill the
title, the error message only appears on the second submit, and after that you retrieve again foo/add,
you see the error msg again, in spite you haven't submited the form again. (Seems the presentation of
the messages is shifted.)

A friend of mine told me the solution. I have to put the theme() functions to a separate function set by #after_build FAPI directive. I don't really know why does it work but it works :)
