Modifying style of Marking a field in a form as required

[rrhati2010]

Hi,

I tried to mark a field as required in a form by
<field name="comments" required-field="true"><text size="40" maxlength="60"/></field>

Doing this it gives a asterick after the the text field.

But I need to put the asterick before the text field.

How can I do that? Please help....

from widget-form.xsd


                 <xs:documentation>The name of a style (like a CSS
class) to apply to the title of this field if required.
                     Will default to form's default-required-field-style.
                     If field is required, but required-field-style is
empty, an '*' will be placed to the right of text,
                     textarea and password fields.
                 </xs:documentation>

you can see this used in forms that show  "required" instead of *.
not sure if you can get the position to change though.
maybe add a "column placement" in the xsd.
and change widget rendering code.
