class selector .txterror

Hello,

Im trying to style the .txterror messages appearing in several places.

Rather than simply change the color of the text , I'd like to show the messages inside a nice yellowish box.

Here is my code:

"

.txterror {
background-color:#FFFFCC;
border-style:dashed;
border-width:1px;
color:#FF3300;
margin:10px;
padding:20px;
text-align:center;
vertical-align:middle;
}

"

 

But now in several places appears small empty yellow boxes. For example, in My Account Page I get the following:

<span class="txterror" id="ctl00_mainContent_lblErrorMessage"></span>

Is there a way to avoid these empty spans?

 

any help?

Thanks and Best Regards,

I solved this in many places yesterday, if you are working from svn trunk you should see improvements.

Basically the problem is that ASP.NET Label control renders a span even if the label has no text. I implemented a custom mojoLabel that inherits from ASP.NET Label but if only renders if the text length is greater than 0. I replaced error labels with this new label in places where I see it.

Best,

Joe

Hello Joe,

Thank you!

If you think that it is a good idea I can point you to other places where this problem arises as I work skinning the system, so you can update with the new control.

 

Best regards,

Hi Mathias,

I basically added your css to my skin and went looking for them and fixed the ones I found. It is possible I did not find them all so if you see any more just let me know what page you see them on.

Best,

Joe
