Is it possible to avoid applying rails default FieldWithErrors css  
class for particular input fields.  
if not how to avoid on the whole.  
Thanks a bunch

You can print the errors individually using your own css:

\<% if @foo.errors && @foo.errors[‘bar’] -%\>  
\<%= @foo.errors[‘bar’] %\>  
\<% end -%\>
