HTML/CSS - Perhaps if some has time they can look this over

Question

9 Years Ago

I am issues involving the CSS for my HTML index page.

I will be honest, I did not write all of the mark-up/code so now I am in discovery/repair mode and find myself a bit lost in regards to the external CSS file.

I have gone over and over it, but cannot find the solution for making all of the fields and elements the color gray (#414141). Some of them are already, most are not (They are white). It is very confusing. I am missing something, somewhere.

Thank you in advance for your time and any help or point in the right direction!
I will post the mark-up/code below:

As far as I can see some inputs that are still white has no class="field" and on others you have type="field" which should be then class="field". I also see that you have a type="grey" attribute on some labels, but that's also a mistake I asume. The label element has only two type attributes type="for" and type="form"

Which elements are you talking about specifically, as some have overrides and stuff to cause problems. Maybe worth posting a browser screenshot so we can see what you're seeing.

BTW: it says in your signature "Never allow just anyone access to your database", but your code is soo vunerable to SQL injection you've practically given the world your front door key. Use an escape function, and maybe think about mysqli_*, since normal MySQL functions have been scrapped by PHP for a long time.

mattster:

Thank you for your reply.

Attached is a screenshot of the index page as it is currently - I would like to have all the text fields grey as some of the others are (with white text).

Also, regarding MySQLi and escape functions: I am about to implement all of that very soon but have not yet as I keep getting held up by other aspects of the site development:

Please see index screenshot:

If you hit F12 in most browsers you will get some developer functionality. You can click on any element and then it will show you all they styles and where they are coming from etc - very useful for debugging CSS issues.

HTML/CSS - Perhaps if some has time they can look this over
