Background color in input and text fields

Question

I would like to change the color background in the text and input fields of a form  but when I do this it also affects the submit button  Could it be done in some other way that does not affect the button   I have used this code   input  textarea     background-color   d1d1d1

You want to restrict to input fields that are of type text so use the selector input type text  rather than input  which will apply to all input fields  e g  those of type submit as well

The best solution is the attribute selector in CSS  input type  text    as the others suggested   But if you have to support Internet nbsp Explorer nbsp 6  you cannot use it  QuirksMode   Well  only if you have to  and also are willing to support it   In this case your only option seems to be to define classes on input elements    lt input type  text  class  input-box        gt   lt input type  submit  class  button        gt        and target them with a class selector   input input-box  textarea   background  cyan
