MVC CSS style not accepted

Question

Im developed the MVC project , I want to style this display error message but its not working,i cant add this for CSS style ,How can i do it?

@Html.ValidationMessageFor(a => a.SelectedValue)

CSS

.field-validation-error {
    color: #ff0000;
    position: absolute;
    left: 200px;
    top: 5px;  font-size:14px; font-family:'Arno Pro';
    width: 250px; /*background:url(../img/wrng_icn.png) no-repeat right center;
}

You can assign custom attributes to Html Helpers like the below.

@Html.ValidationMessageFor(a => a.SelectedValue, new {@class = "field-validation-error"});

Update: Pass it a null to use a different overload

@Html.ValidationMessageFor(a => a.SelectedValue, null, new {@class = "field-validation-error"});

@DavidG Please explain why? The answer is correct, it has fixed the OP's issue, isn't that the point of accepting an answer. Some newer users do not understand the concept of accepting answers. Otherwise this question will look unanswered. I never asked for upvotes.

@JamieR Because it looks like begging. Let the answer stand for itself and the OP can decide if he/she wants to accept. On the subject of educating new users, it's sometimes OK to say things like "don't forget to accept/upvote any answers or questions that you find useful on Stackoverflow" but generally it's bad.
