Question

I hope this isn’t too difficult, obviously you can call HTML tags such as fieldset, label and legends and also textboxes. However how does one call an asp:textbox, i have tried just textbox, asp:textbox, input.textbox but nothing seems to work. This is something that should be really straight forward to do and I can’t waste any more time figuring it out.

Thanks.

You can try input[type=text] but that will not work in IE6. Or you can create a class like .asp-textbox and set the CSSClass property of the textbox to asp-textbox which will work across browsers.

Example:

<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" CssClass="asp-textbox"></asp:TextBox>

/*CSS*/
.asp-textbox{background-color:red;}
