messages tag styleClass attribute not working

Hi there.

 

I have a messages tag in a VF page like this:

 

 

<apex:messages styleClass="error"/>
 
and I am then adding a message to the page in my controller. The resulting HTML has no CSS class attriubute: 
 
 
 <ul>
<li> My error message. </li>
</ul>
 
The CSS class exists. It's in a stylesheet pulled in as a static resource. Am I using this incorrectly or does it just not work?
 
Thanks,
 
Eliot Stock.

try to wrap the page messages in a div or output panel
 
 

<apex:outputPanel sytleClass="error" >
 <apex:messages />
</apex:outputPanel>
 
 then your style should be applied to the outer div/span.  i think your class should specify 
 
.error li  { sytle here }
