Spring MVC validation error styling

I would like to style my forms in case of errors a bit more. Standard-usage is to print the error with help of <f:errors path="name" cssClass="error" />

But I want to mark the corresponding text fields as well - maybe by adding an additional style.

Can this be done in an easy way?

Thanks in advance and cheers

Martin

So late, but it can be useful for someone else.
A very easy way now, using the cssErrorClass, i.e.:
<form:input path="id" class="form-control height30px" cssErrorClass="form-control height30px error"/>

One easy way I can think of is:

<c:set var="inputCls" value="niceInputCls" scope="page" />

<form:errors path="name" cssClass="error">
<c:set var="inputCls" value="errorInputCls" scope="page" />
</form:errors>

And in your input tag:

<form:input path="name" cssClass="${inputCls}" />

You can define your normal input and error input style classes.
