  1. you need css <head> <style type="text/css"> <!-- .fieldcolor { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color: #990000; background-color: #CCCCCC; } --> </style> </head> <input type="text" class="fieldcolor" size="50" maxlength="125" />
  2. For css, simply change the color attrib of a text area: input, textarea { color: #ff0000; }
  3. In your CSS portion you can use something like this: .textfield {background-color:white; font: 8pt/8pt arial; color:#ff0000; text-decoration: none} And later on in your text input portion you can use something like this: <input type=text size=8 name="as_q" class=textfield><br>
