It means that any attributes you use in tags must have their values surrounded with double (or single) quotes. Look again at your zem_contact tag:

<txp:zem_contact_textarea rows="10" cols="30" label="Message" required=1 />

and compare it to this (correct) one:

bc. <txp:zem_contact_textarea rows="10" cols="30" label="Message" required="1" />

Notice that the ‘required’ value has quotes round it? Do that and the warning will disappear.

Since TXP 4.0.7, you need to make sure that all attributes conform to this convention. Some older plugins (written for TXP versions prior to 4.0.7) could get away without the quotes, so some examples in plugin documentation and on the fourm are now ‘incorrect’.

You can certainly style everything zem_contact_reborn puts out — everything gets one or more class names added automatically. There’s a helpful bit in the plugin help text on styling. You might have a CSS rule along the lines of:

label.zemRequired {font-size: 9px;}

Code is topiary
