Hi,

I want the css special for <input type="text"> and tried to put the following in my style.css file but not wording:
input.text {font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; height: 19px; border: 1px solid;}
What I am doing wrong?

Thank you in advance.
 
Thank.
However, the like you suggested only deals with Input as a whole, there is no item for <input type="text">
 
What you were doing was assigning something to an input element that has a class called "text". Since you don't have that in your html code, it is not applied anywhere. However the path you took is the most you can do nowadays. Just apply the class="text" to all the input type="text" boxes. In CSS3 there is a selector that deals with what you want and you use it like this:
Code:
input[type="text"] {
 ...
}
Though that will only work with a few browsers today and definitely won't work in IE.
