Required Fields/Regular Expression Message Alternative Location

Is there a way to use an Alert or some other way to indicate to the user that some entry on the form is invalid - other than the default where messages appear at the bottom? I have a very long form and the messages show up at the bottom, which are not visible unless you have scrolled all the way down.  This has been a great solution until this super long form.

Any ideas?

  I use Decision and If activities for some of my error messages. I let the user enter whatever they want, and then I test the input with ranges or a set of valid inputs. If the input was invalid, it will trigger an alert and send the user back to the original form. If everything passes, then the workflow continues.

  If you have a lot of entries on the form, you could pass the user to a copy of the Display Form where the entries are optional so they only have to change the invalid entries (i.e. all of the valid values will remain stored in their respective variables).
