onFocus in CSS?

[Bluenose]

Is it possible to have a textbox's focus using css? The background color should change when the cursor is in the active form field if possible, moving back to its original colour when another field is clicked.

At the moment I have this in <style>:

<style type=text/css>

p {font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10px;}

p.mySize {font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 0.75em;}

table.myTable {margin-left:60px;}

input.blue {background-color: #D9F5F1; font-size: 12px; color: 1E1CDE;}
input.marine {background-color: #D9F5F1; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; }
textarea.marine {background-color: #D9F5F1; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 12px;}

</style>

while the form itself, which is in a table, looks like this:

<table border="0" cellspacing="1">
		<tr>
			<td valign="top">
				<p class="mySize">Name:</p>
			</td>
			<td colspan="2">
				<input class="marine" name="ContactUs_Name" size="35" value="<% =ContactUs_Name %>">
			</td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<td valign="top">
				<p class=mySize>Email:</p>
			</td>
			<td colspan="2">
				<input class="marine" name="ContactUs_Email" size="35" value="<% =ContactUs_Email %>">
			</td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<td valign="top">
				<p class="mySize">Subject:</p>
			</td>
			<td colspan="2">
				<input class="marine" name="ContactUs_Subject" value="<% =ContactUs_Subject %>" size="35">
			</td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<td valign="top">
				<p class="mySize">Message:</p>
			</td>
			<td valign="top">
				<textarea class="marine" rows="10" name="ContactUs_Body" cols="35"><% =ContactUs_Body %></textarea>
			</td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<td valign="top">
				&nbsp;
			</td>
			<td colspan="2">
				<input class="blue" type="submit" value="Send">
			</td>
		</tr>
	</table>

Many thanks.

You can use the :focus selector. For it to work in IE8, a DOCTYPE has to be declared.

Hello Rabbit

Many thanks for that - I will read up on it.
