Try this   lt input type  text   gt    It will display same in all cross browser like mozilla   chrome and internet explorer    lt style gt      input         border 2px solid  FF0000         lt  style gt    Dont add style inline because its not good practise  use class to add style for your input box

This css solution worked for me   input active  input focus       border  1px solid  red    input active  input focus       padding  2px solid  red   for firefox and chrome          ie is a class you would need to set at the html root level     ie input active   ie input focus       padding  3px solid  red    IE needs 1px extra padding       I understand it is not necessary on FF and Chrome  but IE needs it  And there are circumstances when you need it
