I usually make my customization of the form errors trough the controller.
For example in your case I would do:
form = SQLFORM(db.mytable,formstyle = 'divs')
if form.process().accepted:
response.flash = 'form accepted'
elif form.errors:
for fieldname in form.errors:
control = form.element(_name=fieldname)
control.parent.append(DIV(DIV(form.errors[fieldname],_class=
"error",_style="display:inline-block;")))
form.errors.clear()
response.flash = 'form has errors'
else:
response.flash = 'please fill out the form'
I hope this helps.
