input borders for text boxes

i can use the code:

input {background-color: #FFFFFF; border: 1px #000000 solid}

and this will put a black border around my textboxes and the submit button. Is there anyway i can just have the border around the textboxes alone?

I've searched the web and seen the code:

input.text {background-color: #FFFFFF; border: 1px #000000 solid}

but then this doesn't have any effect at all.

Thanks.The easiest way is to use a BUTTON (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#edef-BUTTON">http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/for ... def-BUTTON</a><!-- m -->) element for your submit button.that would work, but i'm using my own image for a submit button:

<input type = "image" src = <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/">http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/</a><!-- m -->"graphics/btn1.jpg" name = "submit" alt = "Log In"><button type="submit"><img src = <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/">http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/</a><!-- m -->"graphics/btn1.jpg" name = "submit" alt = "Log In"></button>

Or you can play around with ids and classes.How would you add an id to it?<input type="image" src=http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/"graphics/btn1.jpg" name="submit" alt="Log In" id="submit">

or

<iinput type="image" src=http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/"graphics/btn1.jpg" name="submit" alt="Log In" style="border:0px">Great - the second one worked fine.

Thanks for your help and the quick replies. ;)

Whats an undermensch? Nietzsche wrote of the ubermensch, the over man, man perfected.hmmm i've got myself stumped again.

how can i use the method above for a reset button?

For some reason, when using value="submit" (as in the above example) it works fine, but it won't work with value ="reset".

:confused:no need for reply - i just worked it out:

<input type = "reset" name = Reset" value="" style="background-image: url(clear_btn); border: 0px; width: 115px; height: 35px; background-color: transparent;">

:)
