 * I am creating a wordpress theme, and I want to add a custom error message for
   when a user is adding a comment. Right now, if the user leaves the comment field
   blank it will take them to a blank page saying they must write a comment. Is 
   there a way to redirect to the comments page with an error variable set in the
   title bar?
