CSS Selector for input type

Question

Is there any way with CSS to target all inputs based on their type  I have a disabled class I use on various disabled form elements  and I m setting the background color for text boxes  but I don t want my checkboxes to get that color    I know I can do this with seperate classes but I d rather use CSS if possible  I m sure  I can set this in javascript but again looking for CSS   I m targeting IE7   So i don t think I can use CSS3   Edit  With CSS3 I would be able to do something like   INPUT type  text   disabled that would be even better get rid of my class altogether     Edit  Ok thanks for the help  So here s a selector which modifies all textboxes and areas which have been disabled without requiring setting any classes  when I started this question I never thought this was possible     INPUT disabled  type  text    TEXTAREA disabled           background-color  Silver      This works in IE7

Sadly the other posters are correct that you re     actually as corrected by kRON  you are ok with your IE7 and a strict doc  but most of us with IE6 requirements are reduced to JS or class references for this  but it is a CSS2 property  just one without sufficient support from IE h h browsers   Out of completeness  the type selector is - similar to xpath - of the form  attribute value  but many interesting variants exist  It will be quite powerful when it s available  good thing to keep in your head for IE8    w3 reference browser support reference

Sorry  the short answer is no   CSS  2 1  will only mark up the elements of a DOM  not their attributes   You d have to apply a specific class to each input   Bummer I know  because that would be incredibly useful   I know you ve said you d prefer CSS over JavaScript  but you should still consider using jQuery   It provides a very clean and elegant way of adding styles to DOM elements based on attributes
