In this tutorial we are going to design the form textfield, changing the border color, add square borders, adding gradient background to textfield
Lets start the Begining: Design 1
First of all we have to create the form and Textfield in html, Copy & Paste the below code in your <body> tag of your html file:
<form> <input class="design1" size="45" value="A quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" name="textfield" type="text" /> </form>
Styling the “design1″ Textfield
Okay, now we are going to design the “class=’design1′” Textfield, copy and paste the below code in your <head> tag of your html file or in you “.css” file:
.design1{
background-color:#fffff;
border:1px solid #dbdbdb;
padding:5px;
}
background-color: This is used for changing the background color of the Textfield.
border: This is used for changing the border color of the Textfield.
Your Design 1 will be look like this

Design 2
Html code for Design 2:
<form> <input class="design2" size="45" value="A quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" name="textfield" type="text" /> </form>
Styling the “design2″ Textfield
Css code for “class=’design2′” texfield:
.design2{
background-color:#fffff;
border:1px solid #dbdbdb;
padding:5px;
-webkit-border-radius:7px;
-moz-border-radius:7px;
}
background-color: This is used for changing the background color of the Textfield.

Some browser doesn’t support rounded corners borders, so we used “-webkit-border” and “-moz-border-radius” for multiple browser support, so in the above code “-webkit-border” is used for WebKit equivalent, and”-moz-border-radius” is used for Mozilla equivalent
Your Design 2 will be look like this
