Re: xhtml styles

IE doesn't support element[type=anything] - you can, however, access the form fields by:

p { /* just to make the test form look good */
 border: 1px solid #3c0;
 padding: 20px;
 text-align: left;
 }
input { /* all input fields in form */
    border:solid #7F9D89 1px;
 color: blue;
    }
#input-password { /* password input box, specified by an ID */
    border:solid #7F9D89 1px;
 color: red;
    }





XHTML:



<form action="#">
 <p>Test form<br />
 <input type="text" />&nbsp;text area <br />
 <input type="password" / id="input-password">&nbsp;password area<br />
 </p>
</form>

  I'm trying to add styles to form fields.  I have the following in my css, but it doesn't work in IE.  Is this the proper syntax?

   

  input[type=text]{

  border:solid #7F9D89 1px;

  }

  input[type=password]{

  border:solid #7F9D89 1px;

  }
