styling input placeholder code example

Example 1: css style placeholder

input::-webkit-input-placeholder {/* Chrome/Opera/Safari/Edge */
	/*styles here*/
}

input::-ms-input-placeholder { /* Microsoft Edge */
   /*styles here*/
}

input:-ms-input-placeholder {/* IE 10+ */
	/*styles here*/
}

input::-moz-placeholder {/* Firefox 19+ */
	opacity: 1; /*Firefox by default has an opacity object that usually is ideal to reset so it matches webkit*/
	/*styles here*/
}

input:-moz-placeholder {/* Firefox 18- */
	opacity: 1; /*Firefox by default has an opacity object that usually is ideal to reset so it matches webkit*/
	/*styles here*/
}

input::placeholder {
	/*styles here*/
}

Example 2: input placeholder css

::placeholder {
  color: red;
}

Example 3: html css placeholder input font-size

Placeholder text will automatically inherit the font family and font size of the regular input text, but you may be in a situation where you want to change the placeholder text color. You can accomplish that with the ::placeholder pseudo-element.

Example 4: change input placeholder text css

#text2::-webkit-input-placeholder::before {
    color:#666;
    content:"Line 1\A Line 2\A Line 3\A";
}
