Thanks Simon, that will solve my actual problem. BUT: Does that mean that I can't associate an tr:inputText with a style class selector? When I have a different use case (say, mark all optional <input> components or something else) then I can't do it by myself, it must be implemented in Trinindad?? Cheers, Markus

Hello Markus, It will be possible soon since I posted a patch about this, we only need to commit it when we're sure it works fine. We have a small issue with states currently though so it might not be today.
