I want to set the color to the placeholder, change the font style to bold, and increase the size.
How can I achieve this? Should I give style to the placeholder, or is t
You can use the following code for cross-browser support:
For Google Chrome:
.element::-webkit-input-placeholder {
color: blue;
font-weight: bold;
}
For Mozilla Firefox:
.element::-moz-placeholder {
color: blue;
font-weight: bold;
}
For Internet Explorer:
.element:-ms-input-placeholder {
color: blue;
font-weight: bold;
}
For Opera:
.element:-o-input-placeholder {
color: blue;
font-weight: bold;
}
You can use the placeholder pseudo element
And font-weight
to make it bolder
<!doctype html>
<style>html { font-size: 14px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; }
.k-dropdown-wrap{
border-width: 5px !important;
border-color: #D8D3D3 !important;
}
::-webkit-input-placeholder {
font-weight: 800;
font-size: 16px;
}
:-moz-placeholder {
font-weight: 800;
font-size: 16px;
}
::-moz-placeholder {
font-weight: 800;
font-size: 16px;
}
:-ms-input-placeholder {
font-weight: 800;
font-size: 16px;
}
}

Here is the for customizing placeholder
::-webkit-input-placeholder { /* WebKit, Blink, Edge */
color: #909;
font-size:12px;
}
:-moz-placeholder { /* Mozilla Firefox 4 to 18 */
color: #909;
font-size:12px;
}
::-moz-placeholder { /* Mozilla Firefox 19+ */
color: #909;
font-size:12px;
}
:-ms-input-placeholder { /* Internet Explorer 10-11 */
color: #909;
font-size:12px;
}
For me, just the font-weight: normal;
worked like
.class {
font-weight: normal;
}
