i was looking through the helpers and found this in the html helper:
* html tags used by this helper.
*
* @var array
*/
var $tags = array(
..
'error' => '<div%s>%s</div>'
..
);
which looks like it would be easy to override, but it turns out this tag is
unused by the error methods. the methods use the generic "tag" instead:
'tag' => '<%s%s>%s</%s>',
does anyone know why $tags['error'] doesn't seem to be used?
