If you look at the source for any of the pages in the asylum and you'll notice that in the <head> tags there'll be the <style> tags and inbetween those you'll notice that the input tags and textarea are redefined to look a certain way. IE, having a special bg color and having an outline etc...you can also just make your own CSS class and apply to each form object for example: <html> <head> <style> .form { font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; font-weight: bold; color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: none; background-color: #663300; border: #000000; border-style: solid; border-top-width: 1px; border-right-width: 1px; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-left-width: 1px} </style> </head> this is how your "form" class is defined. now to apply it to a form object: <INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="UserName" VALUE="" SIZE=25 MAXLENGTH=25 CLASS="form"> There ya go.

How do you make colored forms? I'm talking about the text boxes like this forum uses. How do you change the background color and outline color on them? Thanks.

CSS. If you look at the source for any of the pages in the asylum and you'll notice that in the <head> tags there'll be the <style> tags and inbetween those you'll notice that the input tags and textarea are redefined to look a certain way. IE, having a special bg color and having an outline etc...you can also just make your own CSS class and apply to each form object for example:
<html>
<head>
<style>
.form { font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; font-weight: bold; color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: none; background-color: #663300; border: #000000; border-style: solid; border-top-width: 1px; border-right-width: 1px; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-left-width: 1px}
</style>
</head>

this is how your "form" class is defined. now to apply it to a form object:

<INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="UserName" VALUE="" SIZE=25 MAXLENGTH=25 CLASS="form">

There ya go.
