how to style placeholder text code example

   /*styles here*/
}

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

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

	/*styles here*/
}

Example 2: css style placeholder

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
   <head>
      <title>Placeholder - Style</title>
      <style>
         ::placeholder {
            color: green;
         }

         .force-opaque::placeholder {
            opacity: 1;
         }
      </style>
   </head>
   <body>
      <input placeholder="Default opacity..." />
      <input placeholder="Full opacity..." class="force-opaque" />
   </body>
</html>

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.
