How do you change a Text area Color.

You know this part

<input type="text" name="textfield">

How do i change the background color of it and can you put a pixel border?

thanks.

<style>
input[type="text"]{border:1px;background-color:red}
</style>

or:

<input type="text" name="textfield" style="border:1px;background-color:red">

Thanks :)

can you change the height of the text area?

but if you are going to change the height on an input
instead you should use a <textarea></textarea>
