The background colour of text fields?

Hello

Is it possible to change the background colour (white) of the entry fields on a search page? Any ideas? I would like to tone them in a green nuance, like the background of my document.

I have absolutely no idea of it is possible (HTML or Javascript). Hints welcome!

Hi I use FrontPage2000 to get me most stuff I need. I toyed with your question for 5 minutes and here is what I have

<P>FieldName:<input type="text" size=30 name="FieldName" style="background-color: #0040B0"></P>

(The color above is Deep Blue)

Show me the background color of your document and I may be able to get you the exact color code. I even have a web safe color chart (I could email it to you if you want)

Good Luck

Had to come back and edit so I could give you proper HTML code.

That is tedious way. Much better is through CSS INPUT parameters.

Hi

Thanx for the tips! I chose to use the "tedious" method as my project at the moment does not involve CSS.

I modified the code a bit to make it work in both IE and Netscape.

The style="background-color:#FFFFFF" - does not work in Netscape, but

this style ="background:#FFFFFF" does.
