If I use $form->input() then I will also have to use the label for the input field it will display, which I don't want to, since I want my label in some specific CSS style.
Can't the error message be displayed using $form->text() and other such helpers? In cakephp 1.1 it was $html->tagErrorMsg but I know that in cakephp 1.2 it has been deprecated. So what's the new way of doing it?
