Setting up a style in form input text and textarea

By default, input text and textarea in a form is not really in a good look.. I recommend to style it with a simple CSS entry below. Hope you like it!!

input[type="text"], textarea {
        background: #f9f9f9;
        border: 1px solid #ccc;
        box-shadow: inset 1px 1px 1px rgba(0,0,0,0.1);
        -moz-box-shadow: inset 1px 1px 1px rgba(0,0,0,0.1);
        -webkit-box-shadow: inset 1px 1px 1px rgba(0,0,0,0.1);
        padding: 2px;
        font-family: "lucida grande",verdana,tahoma,arial,sans-serif;
}


Details are as follows:
  • background - This will be the color of the box shadow
  • border - Color of the box border
  • box-shadow - This is the current standard in CSS shadow settings
  • -moz-box-shadow - This is used to support way too old version of Mozilla
  • -webkit-box-shadow - This is used to support other browser
  • padding - To implement padding between other elements.
  • font-family - To put a style in fonts for textarea and input text.

Hope this helps a lot. Happy coding!!

Leadership 101


  • Leadership demands sacrifices for the near-term to receive lasting benefits. the longer we wait to make sacrifices, the harder they become. Successful people make important decisions early in their life, then manage those decisions the rest of their lives.
  • Growth does not happen by chance. If you want to be sure to grow, you need a plan something strategic, specific, and scheduled. it's a discipline that would need incredible determination from us.
  • Success comes by going the extra mile, working the extra hours, and investing the extra time. The same is true for us. If we want to get to excel in any segment of life, a little extra effort can help. Our efforts can go a long way if we only work a little smarter, listen a little better, push a little harder, and persevere a little longer.
  • Making a difference in your work is not about productivity; it's about people. When you focus on others and connect with them, you can work together to accomplish great things.
  • Envision a goal you'd like to reach. Make it big enough to scare you a little. Now write down a plan for moving toward it. Create mini-goals within the big goal, to set yourself up for continual progress. And include some risks, too. Set yourself up for success.
  • Leaders build margins, not image. A leader may be forced to take unpopular stands for the good of the company. Popularity isn't bad, but decisions made solely on the basis of popular opinion can be devastating. So take courage and make the right though sometimes painful choices.
