Custom error messages for dropdown component

Hi everyone,
I have a field which is of text field type,but on visualforce page I am creating it as dropdown using <apex:selectList> .Due to this I am unable to attach required error message to it .Is there any solution to it?

can you use <apex:pageMesssages/> tag, this will display the error message at the top of the page.
I'm not sure how you are expecting it.

Actually <apex:pageMesssages/> will show error messages at the top of the screen.But I needed along with the component .I figured it out.Created an error block and applied styling same as <apex:messages> and then rendered it conditionally.
