How to add an OUTLINE around text box

[EyeintheSky57]

Very good point.

This seems to be something that isn't in the vBulletin Manuel. Maybe it is somewhere but not on the pages I use when making Style color changes.

That border is controlled in the "Input Field" part of the Style Manager. You use the "Extra CSS Attributes" block with a command like: border: 1px solid #bf0404;

The allows you to change the border thickness, style, and color.
