[quote author="invision" date="1271686244"]Many thanks for the reply $ilovephp.

Currently I'm using this for generating input fields:

Code:

<?php echo form_input($email); ?>

Would I have to rejig your code above to get it to work correctly?

The only thing we need to edit in your input field is the style attribute. In your case, you are using the Form Helper of CI. You may want to consider the following codes:

Code:

$email = array(
              'name'        => 'email',
              'id'          => 'email'
            );
if($this->validation->email_error != '')
{
$email['style'] = 'border:2px solid red';
}

echo form_input($email);

not so sure but why not give it a try...
