```auto
input, textarea{ border: 1px solid #f00; }

I don’t think you can change select (drop down) menus with CSS in IE though. Radio button and check box support isn’t all that great either. You can probably do a search at google and find more detailed answers for CSS form element support by browser. That or test the code on your computer with a few browsers to see if it’s even something you want to worry about.

yes, it can be done with css. just make a class like \ then define your .myclass in the css.
you could also just refere to it as input { … } in the css.
meh, ankou beat me to the punch.
