I don't want to style the hidden attributes, I believe it's the hidden attributes that are stopping my "text" input from being styled.

I have never tried to style a form with hidden attributes, but for the life of me I cannot figure this out. I have tried adding a class, etc. to the hidden inputs, but still nothing. Any form of style I add seems to just effect the outer parameters of the actual form. <form id="search" name="search" form method="get" action="find_search.php"> <input type= "text" name= "q" value="" /> <input type="hidden" name= "cat" value="" /> <input type="hidden" name= "time" value="0" /> <input type="hidden" name="letter" value="" /> <input type="hidden" name="offset" value="0" /> <input type="hidden" name= "type" value="quick" /> <input type="submit" value="Search" /> </form> #search { width:50%; padding:10px; outline:none; height:36px; } .focusField { border:solid 2px #73A6FF; background:#EFF5FF; color:#000; } .idleField{ background:#EEE; color:#6F6F6F; border: solid 2px #DFDFDF; } Thanks in advance!
