I think the quote mark balancing is messed up here...

adding the input.error didn't solve the problem dang it.! If there is
a ending quote missing, I don't see it right off hand.
I know have:
<input class="<? if($error_msg){ echo "input.error"; } ELSE { echo
"input.normal"; } id="firstname" name="firstname"
type="text"
value="{$_POST['firstname']}"? />"
in the css:
input.error {
border: 2px inset red;
margin:0;
font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
color: #036;
width: 15em;
padding-left: .25em;
font-weight: bold;
background: #eee;
}
