CSS selector for text input fields?

Question

How can I target input fields of type \'text\' using CSS selectors?

Answer 1

I usually use selectors in my main stylesheet, then make an ie6 specific .js (jquery) file that adds a class to all of the input types. Example:

$(document).ready(function(){
  $("input[type='text']").addClass('text');
)};

And then just duplicate my styles in the ie6 specific stylesheet using the classes. That way the actual markup is a little bit cleaner.
