    Hi,

    <apex:message> :

    A message for a specific component, such as a warning or error. If an or component is not included in a page, most warning and error messages are only shown in the debug log.

    <apex:messages> :

    All messages that were generated for all components on the current page. If an or component is not included in a page, most warning and error messages are only shown in the debug log.

    <apex:pageMessage> :

    This component should be used for presenting custom messages in the page using the Salesforce pattern for errors, warnings and other types of messages for a given severity.

    Hi

    Add more point:

    <apex:pageMessage>

    This component is used to dispaly custom messages with severity error,warning etc.  in the VF page.

    <apex:page controller="MyRegisterCon2" sidebar="false" docType="HTML-5.0"   >

    <apex:form >
    <apex:pageBlock >
    <apex:pageblockSection columns="1" >
     <apex:pageMessage summary="This is page message"  severity="warning" strength="3" />
    <apex:inputtext value="{!FirstName}" label="First Name"  />
    <apex:inputtext value="{!LastName}" label="Last Name" />
    <apex:input value="{!Jdate}" label="DOB" type="date" id="dob" />
    <apex:inputtext value="{!Phone}" label="Phone"  id="phone"  />
    </apex:pageblockSection>
    <apex:pageBlockButtons >
    <apex:commandButton value="submit" action="{!save}" />
    </apex:pageBlockButtons>
    </apex:pageBlock>
    </apex:form></apex:page>

     

    <apex:pageMessages>

    The  above component provides the SF styling for the messages. 

    <apex:page controller="MyRegisterCon2" sidebar="false" docType="HTML-5.0"   >

    <apex:form >
    <apex:pageBlock >
    <apex:pageblockSection columns="1" >
    <apex:pageMessages />
    <apex:inputtext value="{!FirstName}" label="First Name"  />
    <apex:inputtext value="{!LastName}" label="Last Name" />
    <apex:input value="{!Jdate}" label="DOB" type="date" id="dob" />
    <apex:inputtext value="{!Phone}" label="Phone"  id="phone"  />
    </apex:pageblockSection>
    <apex:pageBlockButtons >
    <apex:commandButton value="submit" action="{!save}" />
    </apex:pageBlockButtons>
    </apex:pageBlock>
    </apex:form></apex:page>

     

    <apex:messages>

    Include above code in VF page it will display all the messages . If we observe styling was not applied to the messages.

    <apex:page controller="MyRegisterCon2" sidebar="false" docType="HTML-5.0"   >

    <apex:form >
    <apex:pageBlock >
    <apex:pageblockSection columns="1" >
    <apex:messages />
    <apex:inputtext value="{!FirstName}" label="First Name"  />
    <apex:inputtext value="{!LastName}" label="Last Name" />
    <apex:input value="{!Jdate}" label="DOB" type="date" id="dob" />
    <apex:inputtext value="{!Phone}" label="Phone"  id="phone"  />
    </apex:pageblockSection>
    <apex:pageBlockButtons >
    <apex:commandButton value="submit" action="{!save}" />
    </apex:pageBlockButtons>
    </apex:pageBlock>
    </apex:form></apex:page>

     

    <apex:message>:

    This component is used to display warning or error message for a specific component.

    Change visualforce to following code.

    <apex:page controller="MyRegisterCon2" sidebar="false" docType="HTML-5.0"   >

    <apex:form >
    <apex:pageBlock >
    <apex:pageblockSection columns="1" >
    <apex:message for="phone" />
    <apex:inputtext value="{!FirstName}" label="First Name"  />
    <apex:inputtext value="{!LastName}" label="Last Name" />
    <apex:input value="{!Jdate}" label="DOB" type="date" id="dob" />
    <apex:inputtext value="{!Phone}" label="Phone"  id="phone"  />

    </apex:pageblockSection>
    <apex:pageBlockButtons >
    <apex:commandButton value="submit" action="{!save}" />
    </apex:pageBlockButtons>
    </apex:pageBlock>
    </apex:form>

    </apex:page>

     

    Hope this will help you.
