Improving "This is a required field" visibility

Hi there,

I've got the validation script here....
http://www.chronoengine.com/content/view/31/39/
...working great, although I didn't install the files mentioned, as they seemed to be in a sunfolder "js" already...so just added that inot the php path.

I think the words "This is a required field" don't really stand out much when they appear though.

I'm trying to figure out the CSS to make them appear in red and bold...but can't seem to get it to work?

Cheers, Phil

Hi Phil,

I've attached the css file from Andrew Tetlaw's site. Edit and insert this into your site to get whatever effects you need. But take care - some of the css may interfere with your site template and one or the other will need to be edited (which is why I think Max doesn't package it with the validation code).

Thanks....after all that it ends out I had done everything right...I just hadn't realised that the old version of my CSS file was still cached in the browser...opps!🙂

I just needed one class to show the warnings better and this is what I made it in the end....

.validation-advice { padding:2px; background-color:#CCCCCC; color: #FF0000; font-weight: bold;}

Cheers, Phil
