Umm... not sure what you mean by "highlight".
What I usually do is to render every form widget in a table cell of its
own; if there is an error for a widget, "highlight" this table cell in
yellow (or whatever).
You don't necessarily need a custom tag for that, though it would make
things easier. Otherwise, just use one of the logic tags to check if an
error for the widget is present (logic:present or something like that).
HTH,
Michael.
