WordPress comments form - html

I have removed the border of form items on my site but I want them on my blogs comment form!
http://bradburyembroidery.com/houses4cash/blog/hello-world/#comments
I have tried:
#commentform input
{
border:thick;
}
but firebug keeps thinking its saying border:thick none;
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks

The border property is short hand for setting three different properties.
border-style
border-width
border-color
You have set the border-style to none, set it to something else.
#commentform input {
border: thick black solid;
}

The order for the shorthand declaration is width, style, color. So it'd be something like:
#commentform input
{
border: thick solid #F00;
}

border-color ignores my color

I would like to use the color #644220 for the border of my input field. I have tried it like this:
HTML
<input class="my_border" type="text">
CSS
.my_border {
width:100%;
padding: 20px;
outline: none;
border-width: 0 0 1px 50px;
border-color: #644220;
}
https://jsfiddle.net/9dss92v6/1/
When I use red or any other HEX code, it will work for me. It won't only accept the code #644220. And #644220 is an existing color as you see here.
Not even the RGB code (border-color: rgb(100, 66, 32);) is working.
What is wrong with it?
From MDN:
Note: The default value of border-style is none. This means that if
you change the border-width and the border-color, you will not see the
border unless you change this property to something other than none or
hidden.
Now I assume that browsers are not following this and they show some solid default border by default. [1]
You need to define a style for your border for example solid
border-style: solid;
Demo
[1] Was playing further with this, turns out that it's weird behavior I think from the browsers point of view. If am using a word like red or tomato as color names, it works but still, the color is not the one we expect it to be for example this vs this.
I will update this thread if I got any solid reasoning for this.
Edit 3:
Debugging further, it turns out that the default value Chrome sets is inset for border, i.e, border-style: inset;, which has grayish border which is like a shadow. Hence, your color does render but it mixes with the inset border being set by Chrome defaults. Now am not sure why the color is not overridden by the color declaration you have in your stylesheet, might be a bug.
Add border-style for it:
.my_border {
width:100%;
padding: 20px;
outline: none;
border-width: 0 0 1px 50px;
border-color: #644220;
border-style: solid;
}
You may want to combine the properties of your border in one line like this:
.my_border {
width:100%;
padding: 20px;
outline: none;
border: 10px solid #644220;
}
You can always change the thickness of the border. I made it in 10px so it will be visible.

Remove Focus Outline from Input type="range" in Firefox

I know there are other questions like this but I've tried everything they have suggested to no avail. This is a different question than Remove dotted outline from range input element in Firefox as I'm asking what is causing this rogue outline - the previous question answers how to get the colored outlines shown below.
This SO question (Remove dotted outline from range input element in Firefox) mentions the firefox bug - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=932410 but it has since been marked as resolved but I'm still having this issue.
The input CSS is:
input[type=range]:-moz-focusring {
outline: 1px solid orange;
}
input[type=range]:focus {
outline: 1px solid green;
}
input[type=range] {
-moz-appearance: none;
}
input[type=range]:focus::-moz-range-thumb {
outline: 1px solid red;
}
input[type=range]:focus::-moz-range-track {
outline: 1px solid blue;
}
input[type='range']::-moz-focus-inner {
outline: 1px solid red;
}
The computed CSS from my browser is:
The rendered input in the browser looks like this:
From my testing it looks like :-moz-focusring and :focus are the same property - green outline, overwrites the orange.
-moz-appearance: none; on the element does nothing along with ::-moz-focus-inner.
You can see the range-thumb has a red border and range-track has a blue border but there is still the dotted outline. I tried the 'hide it behind a border' trick from the 2nd answer in the above SO question but then the white border is on top of the range-thumb like the dotted outline is in the picture. The outline-offset also does not extend on the left or right so the dotted lines on the end still show.
input[type='range']::-moz-focus-outer { border: 0; }

border-style:dotted is not working in firefox

border-style:dotted is not working in firefox
I have read in Here other than property hidden in IE all the properties support is all browser.
But with my code border-style:dotted is not working but if I will give border-style:solid it is working. (if i will just change border-style:solid it will work fine ?? but why?)
Can any explain me why it is happening ?
See Here
Please try to run fiddle in chrome and firefox.
Thanks !!
CSS triangles relies on the border property to render it as a triangle, making it dotted or solid does not matter in the rendering and does therefor not show the border as "dotted" - if you try it on the fiddle you can see changing the color on the border actually changes the entire triangle.
Triangles: http://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/css-triangle/
Maybe try this syntax:
element {
border: [thickness]px [type] [color];
}
Example:
body {
border: 10px solid black;
}
--
body {
border: 20px dotted black;
}
--
body {
border: 30px dashed black;
}
--
body {
border: 40px groove black;
}
UPDATE:
Upon your query, this IS NOT WORKING AND WILL NOT WORK because,
=> You are already applying border as background. If you look closely, border style dotted is stretched to form background as you are using border width property. Don't judge it as background color. You cannot apply border on a border.
=> To make it work, either introduce another pseudo or actual element and make it do that what you wanted to do.

Why is my 'hr' in HTML displaying with an extra half pixel on it?

It's just a standard HTML 'hr' tag but the line is displaying with an odd extra pixel. My only CSS is:
hr {margin:0%;line-height: 100%;}
Apparently I don't have enough rep to include images of the issue, so you'll have to go off my description.
Use the height property instead of the line-height property and that should fix your issue. Here's some additional information on styling hr tags. Cross-Browser hr Styling
It's in the comments now, but here's the fix that worked for him.
hr { border:none; border-top:1px #CCCCCC solid; height: 1px; }
The HR uses a shadow on it in most browsers. You should override the style using css or something like:
<hr noshade size="1" />
Update:
noshade is deprecated... See http://www.electrictoolbox.com/style-html-hr-tag-css/
Css Solution:
hr {
border: none;
background-color: #000;
color: #000;
height: 1px;
}
Cross-browser solution with CSS:
hr { height: 1px; background-color: #000; border: 0 none; }
How I change the thickness of my <hr> tag
jsFiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/6nXaN/
An hr tag is just rendered as a 1px tall empty element with a border style of inset (change the height of the hr a few pixels to see what I mean). The extra pixel comes on the left due the way the inset border is rendered. If you add:
hr { border-left: none; }
...then you can maintain the inset look of the default hr without the extra pixel. Making the border-style solid, or making it a black background colour may make your hr too dark. I prefer the subtlety of the above approach.

Help removing black border on focus of input button in IE

In IE 7 and lower I cannot get rid of the black border that appears when a input button has focus. I have tried:
input:focus {
outline-width:0;
outline:none;
border: 1px solid #FFF;
}
in CSS but it does not do anything. Any ideas?
You need to set border-color to transparent to remove the border in IE. Like this:
input:focus{
border: none;
border-color: transparent;
}

I saw this from someone here.

Thank you Jordi!
