When changing some parameters around, I didn't realize that I'd set an invalid
argument for one of them, and suddenly found myself in a situation where the 2nd
half of my changes didn't happen.  I never noticed the error message...  The
error message should be bright red - that'd make it a little more obvious!



Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Enter an invalid https:// argument in the editparams.cgi page,
2.  Don't notice the error message

Actual Results:  
The error message looked like a success message, so I missed it.

Expected Results:  
Returned the error message in bright red (configurable via CSS, of course)
Yeah, I totally agree with this one, I've nearly missed some of those messages
myself.
