Hi Prezhi0usGurL,

You can't just put HTML in there, unfortunately! You have to use CSS. I don't think you can change the border for this specific form element. Your CSS is correct, just you can't have it on this element.

To change the font, stick style="font-family: yourfont, another_font_if_you_want;" right in there, should work :)
