changing color attributes in input fields

[steven]

Hey, i was just curious as to how to change the color of an imput field (such as the one you would type in if u were to submit a reply to this). i have an imput box for people to sign up for a mailing list, but the box doesn't really fit in with the rest of the design, so i'd like to change the colors of the box.

any help is much appreciated. thanks.

You should be able to use most of the CSS properties for any changes you want to make any html elements
below is the example for your question

<input type="Text" name="t1" style="background-color:lightyellow;"/>
