Problems with Themes and DynamicForm.setFieldErrors(...)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Fields that are flagged via 'setFieldErrors(...)' seem to always get a blue
background. See attached screenshot (Skin: Enterprise) and Testcase.

--- snip ------------------------------------------

public void onModuleLoad() {

    final DynamicForm form = new DynamicForm();

    TextItem t1 = new TextItem("foo");

    ButtonItem b1 = new ButtonItem("go", "click me");
    b1.addClickHandler(new ClickHandler() {
        public void onClick(ClickEvent event) {
            form.setFieldErrors("foo", "bar", true);
        }
    });

    form.setFields(t1, b1);

    form.draw();
}

Can you describe what you'd like the desired behavior to be?

I didn't expect any change to the background color of the flagged FormItems. It 
seems
to me that they are set to a background color (medium blue) matching the
SilverWave-Theme, no matter what Theme you are actually using.

The backgroundColor is governed by the formCellError / formTitleError set up in
skin_styles.css
You can disable this styling entirely via showErrorStyle 
http://www.smartclient.com/smartgwt/javadoc/com/smartgwt/client/widgets/form/Dyn
amicForm.html#getShowErrorStyle()

(Or you can modify it by changing this skinning file in your application)
