creating different styles for input tag

Hallo,

i want to display different styles for different input elements.

I learned something about "Attribute selectors" and started some CSS code like this.

input[type=submit] {
color: #996666;
font-size: 12px;
font-weight: bold;
background-color: #660033;
border: 1px solid #996666;
}

on my page is nothing changed (still the standard button). Strange is that in Dreamweaver's design-view the smaller boldtext is visible.

Anyone an idea what's wrong?

Thanks.IE does not recognize attribute selectors. Use class to make it work.I was afraid about this... (it doesn't work mozilla 1.5 too)

thanksworks fine in rv1.4b (one I have handy). Unless some bug creapt back in 1.5, check your HTML for possible errors and make sure you do not use some outdated DTD - that may have an effect as well...Sorry but what means:

rv1.4b


and

outdated DTD ?There are different browsers based on Gecko engine: Mozilla, Firebird/Firefox and they have different version numbering.
In order to compare apples to apples I did not use the Firebird version I'm using but the Mozilla revision it is based on (it is shown in the client identification string after letters rv:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030516 Mozilla Firebird/0.6
Another way to compare is Gecko release date (05/16/2003).

Outdated DTD are those that put browser and quirks mode. All new sites should be designed in HTML 4.01 STRICT, XHTML 1.0 STRICT or XHTML 1.1 (which is pretty much reformulated XHTML 1.0 STRICT).Thanks,

i think i read something like this before...
