You can define the border for the text box in a style class and use errorStyle. This will reduce redundancy

Can someone suggest how i could do this?? is there a way i could probably use <logic:present> tag in case an error existed for that particular property, so that I can use two text fields and display the bordered one in case an error occurred. But my solution will mean two html:text tags for every mandatory field, is there a way to reduce the redundancy? -- Puneet
