Our web-based product displays errors and warnings upon submission of a form. The errors & warnings are displayed in a popup modal window that receives focus upon display. We are currently referring to this group of errors & warnings as "Exceptions." I'm not convinced that this is a common word that will be understood by non-technical users. Thoughts?

Thanks much.
