Right. Or, depending on his environment (e.g. portlets) it could be
something else. The point is, it won't be simply "failures" unless he
uses forceId.

Bad bad bad bad! Please don't encourage this sort of thing. :)

That, and the fact that you can't and shouldn't count on the generated
client id always being "_idJsp0". Yes, a class is a much better choice.
All those xxxClass attributes on the h:message tag are there for a
reason! See my other post.

The problem is that CSS will not recognize the selector with a ":" in
the middle. You have to add a "class" to your element and use that.

Then my output when I have an error is:

<input id="_idJsp0:firstName"
name="_idJsp0:firstName" type="text" value="" />
<span
id="_idJsp0:failures">"firstName": Error during model data
update.</span>
</TD>
But, the text is black and default, not css applied.
here is the css:
#failures { color: red; min-width:300px; max-height:200px;
overflow:auto; }
