EForm

I think this should be simple, I just can not figure it out.

I have an eForm. And when someone misses a required field, they see the error message. The problem is that the error message is showing up in the same <p> color as the entire rest of the page, so it is hard to see.

For eForms, how do I change this color to say #cc0000??

Thanks,
L

The error message should be in an HTML element container with a classname or ID that you can use for styling. For example, if you used the standard [+validationmessage+] placeholder for this, it will use this (from the language file)
```
<div class=\"errors\"><strong>Some errors were detected in your form:</strong><br />[+ef_wrapper+]</div>";
```
So for your CSS file you'll have the div with the .errors classname to work with.
