[pygtk] enty with an image as background

[Alessandro Dentella]

Hi,

  I wanted to implement an entry with a simple image as background, mainly
  to warn if a validation error was raised.

  I thought I could use style property bg_pixmap but I can't work out how it
  should work. Here is the code I tried (of course I copied error.png in the
  same directory).
  
  Any hint is appreciated. Thanks

class W(object):

    def __init__(self):
        w = gtk.Window()
        self.e = gtk.Entry()
        w.add(self.e)
        w.show_all()

        self.pixbuf = gtk.gdk.pixbuf_new_from_file('error.png')
        self.pixmap, self.mask = self.pixbuf.render_pixmap_and_mask()     

        style = self.e.get_style().copy()
        style.bg_pixmap[gtk.STATE_NORMAL] = self.pixmap

        self.e.set_style(style)

w = W()
