How to set <input> border - html

I am not sure how to call this kind of feature but my question is, is there a way to set the color of the following effect:
Using just border doesn't make it.

Use the outline property:
input:focus { outline: 2px orange solid }
outline works in all modern browsers except for IE < 8.
The :focus pseudo-class works in all modern browsers except IE - you would have to use a JavaScript workaround for that as shown here.
However, you will not be able to duplicate the desired effect (which seems to be Chrome's default behaviour when focusing on a field?) entirely because outline doesn't have a radius property. Maybe #Sarfraz' suggestion is a suitable workaround for that.

You can use this css:
input:focus,textarea:focus,select:focus{
border:1px solid #fafafa;
-webkit-box-shadow:0 0 6px #007eff;
-moz-box-shadow:0 0 5px #007eff;
box-shadow:0 0 5px #007eff;
}
Check out the demo
off course you can change the color as you like.

How to change/remove form border color on selection?(Chrome)

So I'm using
-webkit-border-radius: 10px;
for a text entry field right now, but the problem is that once the field is selected, there is a border without the border radius modified.
So my question is does anyone know how to modify this?
I don't know if you can set the outline to have a radius like the border but you can remove it with
outline:none;
Besides the outline you may also use
-webkit-appearance: none;
No webkit equivalent to -moz-outline-radius at the moment
While there's no (so far as I'm aware) cross-browser implementation of outline-radius, or even a vendor-prefixed implementation other than the -moz- variant, you could perhaps emulate it with an inset box-shadow:
.elementClass {
padding: 0.2em;
outline: none;
border: 1px solid #000; /* in Chromium 18/Ubuntu 11.04 setting
the border is required for the outline
to be applied, this may not be true elsewhere */
border-radius: 0.4em;
}
.elementClass:focus,
.elementClass:active {
box-shadow: inset 0 0 1px 2px #f90;
}​

Text shadow for IE

I am building a website and I am using the text-shadow function, however it doesnt work for IE.
Graphic:
text-shadow: 0.1em 0.1em 0.2em black;
Is there any solution or hack to over come this, or something that mimics the text-shadow function for IE.
For some versions of IE, Dropshadow filter may do what you need:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms532985%28v=vs.85%29.aspx
I was looking for a cross-browser text-stroke solution that works when overlaid on background images. think I have a solution for this that doesn't involve extra mark-up, js and works in IE7-9 (I haven't tested 6), and doesn't cause aliasing problems.
This is a combination of using CSS3 text-shadow, which has good support except IE, then using a combination of filters for IE. CSS3 text-stroke support is poor at the moment.
IE Filters:
The glow filter looks terrible, so I didn't use that.
David Hewitt's answer involved adding dropshadow filters in a combination of directions. ClearType is then removed unfortunately so we end up with badly aliased text.
I then combined some of the elements suggested on useragentman with the dropshadow filters.
Putting it together
This example would be black text with a white stroke. I'm using conditional HTML classes by the way to target IE (http://paulirish.com/2008/conditional-stylesheets-vs-css-hacks-answer-neither/).
#myelement {
color: #000000;
text-shadow:
-1px -1px 0 #ffffff,
1px -1px 0 #ffffff,
-1px 1px 0 #ffffff,
1px 1px 0 #ffffff;
}
html.ie7 #myelement,
html.ie8 #myelement,
html.ie9 #myelement {
background-color: white;
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Chroma(color='white') progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(opacity=100) progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.dropshadow(color=#ffffff,offX=1,offY=1) progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.dropshadow(color=#ffffff,offX=-1,offY=1) progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.dropshadow(color=#ffffff,offX=1,offY=-1) progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.dropshadow(color=#ffffff,offX=-1,offY=-1);
zoom: 1;
}
The IE filter class also puts a shadow on any background images you have. For instance, I have an H1 tag that has a line as part of the background, when I put the IE text shadow filter on, the line in the background inherits that shadow.
I've been looking and investigating this issue also for some time now and would like to share a maybe contradictory finding while testing my site on IE10.
I have this html structure :
<p>Meer info op onze <a class="links" target="_self" href="/leden">ledenpagina</a></p>
combined with CSS :
p { display: inline-table;
color: #FFF;
text-shadow: 0px 1px 2px #111, 0px 1px 0px #111;
margin: 0px 20px; }
a.links {
text-decoration: underline;
color: #FFFF60;
font-size: 1.1em; }
If i look at the outcome of this in IE10, the achor text "ledenpagina" does receive the text-shadow style as defined in the parent (p tag).
The assumption this could have anything to do with a combined text-decoration:underline selector was false (tested by applying text-decoration also on the p tag)
Result can be witnessed here : http://tczelem.be (slide down the header slider tab)
So the text-decoration selector does seem to have some effect in IE10.

Drop Shadow bug in IE9

If you look at the main navigation menu on this page you see that I'm using a drop shadow on a:hover, however, in IE9 the shadow is buggy - it doesn't always show, and often remains after the hover is no longer active. I want to either fix it, or get rid of the shadow only in IE.
my css is:
#menu a {
color:#fff;
padding-top:10px;
padding-right:10px;
padding-left:10px;
text-decoration:none;
}
#menu a:hover {
background:#e58f56;
border-top: 0px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 10px solid transparent;
border-left: 10px solid #bbb2b1;
border-right: 0;
border-top-right-radius:5px;
border-bottom-right-radius:5px;
-webkit-box-shadow: #888 4px 4px 4px;
-moz-box-shadow: #888 4px 4px 4px;
box-shadow: #888 4px 4px 4px;
}
Any ideas?
I just dropped your code above into a js fiddle and it worked fine in IE9! Must be something to do with the 'pie' fix your calling in. Maybe try remove it and have a check.
The effect you are attempting is definitely 'do able' in IE9.. Don't give up:)!
Are you sure the shadow isn't showing at all? IE9's implementation of box-shadow renders the blur at about half the distance that other browsers do (I actually posted a question about that here). For low values, it's possible that IE9's rendering is so slight that you don't notice it. Just as a test, try making the blur radius much larger to see if it shows up in IE9.
If you dont see the DropShadow, it's probably that your IE9 is in Compatibility View Mode. Try to set explicitly in your page the compatibiltiy with IE9 with some code like:
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8; IE=9; IE=10; IE=11" />
In the header of your page, before calling any Css.

Creating an inset dark drop shadow effect with CSS

I'm trying to get an effect like an inset drop shadow effect in CSS that looks like the following image:
(source: gyazo.com)
Does any body know how I can get that effect with CSS?
The key here is multiple box shadows, a larger darker one inset from the top left and a very subtle shadow below thats slightly brighter than the background.
Notice the form of box-shadow is "x-offset, y-offset, blur, color"
Learn to use the blur amounts and multiple shadows and you can make some really nice effects.
Example style (for display on a background of #222):
.button {
display:inline-block;
padding: 10px 15px;
color: white;
border-radius: 20px;
box-shadow: inset 2px 3px 5px #000000, 0px 1px 1px #333;
}
The answer has already been given to you (box-shadow: inset ..), so here's a quick demonstration of how it could work:
http://jsfiddle.net/L6nJj/
The important part is box-shadow: inset 2px 2px 3px 0 red.
For an explanation of the available options: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/css/box-shadow#Values
Be sure to take into account the browser support for box-shadow, which is that it doesn't work in older versions of IE, but works "everywhere" else: http://caniuse.com/css-boxshadow
Have a look at the CSS3 box-shadow property, in particular, inset box shadows. Example L in this article should provide the effect you're looking for.

How do I get a glow in fields on focus?

I noticed some browsers make some fields glow when you select a form, Chrome makes them have a yellow glow for example. How do you make a field glow? I believe it's something you specify loosely on the code since different browsers do different colors. How does that work? Is there a simple way I could do it?
Check out the demo
CSS Used:
input:focus,textarea:focus,select:focus{
border:1px solid #fafafa;
-webkit-box-shadow:0 0 6px #007eff;
-moz-box-shadow:0 0 5px #007eff;
box-shadow:0 0 5px #007eff;
}

Note:
The box-shadow is CSS3 property meaning it won't work in IE<8, however you can use something like CSS3PIE to get the support even in IE :)
