using <?php echo validation_errors(); ?> to echo errors

I assume you mean ul and not ui?

Anyways, in css you can use this.

Code:

ul li
{
    border:  1px solid red;
}

Or assign it something like

Code:

#errors_css
{
    border: 1px soild red;
}

[code]
<ul>
<li id="errors_css">&lt;?php echo validation_errors(); ?&gt;</li>
</ul>
