You mean like in a form?
Well, you can do it with classes or by selecting elements.
If you do it with elements it looks like this:
input {background: #000; color: #fff; font-family: verdana; font-size: 11px; border: dotted 1px #fff;}
Using that code ALL input tags (which means text boxes, buttons, etc.) will have that styling.
If you use classes it goes more like:
.formstyles {background: #000; color: #fff; font-family: verdana; font-size: 11px; border: dotted 1px #fff;}
and then in the html you put:
<input type="text" class="formstyles" />
The foreward slash is just for xhtml. Eliminate it if your not using xhtml.

OK, I'll explain. I wanna make a selection form thing as in the picture, with the backgroundcolor, the fonttype, fontcolor, and the colors of the button to the right with the \/ on it changed. I want all this style in the document it self:
<html>
<head>
blallalalala
<style>
</head>
<body>
<form>
</body>
</html>
Get it? How do I do that?

Well, you can only change the font, bgcolor, fontcolor, etc. but you cannot change the scrollbar color, or the border.
In this case, use the css code in the stylesheet at the top of the page and then use a class="whatever" to reference it. I avoid using embedded styles like <div style="background: #000;"> because then if you need to update the code you have to hunt for the attribute to change it. I put them inline at the top in the head tag. Does this help?

Yeah it does help a little, but I'm not quite familiar with CSS. I'm gonna start learning that soon, once I finished my new Javascript book 
Thanks, anyway.
