For some reason, all the required fields in the default contact form aren't marked with a '', but ig if try to submit the empty form, I'll get all required fields marked red. It's only the '' which is missing.

All my other forms work well. Any ideas?

Are you using CHtml::activeLabelEx() ?

suppose you have

class ContactForm extends CFormModel


{


	public $name;


...

and you write:

<?php echo CHtml::activeLabelEx($contact,'name '); ?> // note the space

or

<?php echo CHtml::activeLabelEx($contact,'nombre'); ?>

you will not see the asterisk. This what i wanted to explain.
