How to change text color in contact form field?

Hello,

I'm trying to change the color of text entered in a contact form field. Screenshot 1 shows how it looks when I highlight the box and enter text. Screenshot 2 shows how it looks when I click off the box. I'd like the text entered to be white, and I'd like the box not to become white when highlighted. So it would be a black background with white text at all times.

My website is www.nickwaldinger.com, and the password is "create".

Could anyone help me with this?

@tuanphan Your code worked for the first two fields, but the last three are still the same (see screenshots attached, I've included one when I'm typing the text in and one when I click away). Do you have any idea how to fix this?

The first two fields are perfect though!

Hello! I am also trying to do a similar thing, making the boxes on these contact forms transparent. I had it working on one page and now it isn't 😞

The form looks fine to me. Can you describe in more detail?

Hello, 

I am having a similar issue. The background of my website is black and I've just realised the text in the contact form fields is black so you can't see the text when typing. Please can anyone help me turn the text to white?

Thanks in advance!
