Hello! I’ve embedded a HubSpot form into a Webflow site, and the background is all black. The background for the input fields are also black, so I’d like to change the text color when people are typing their info into the form from dark grey to white, so their writing shows up better for them. Either that, or change the background of the input fields to white. Any advice?

Hey @HAnderson4,

You should be able to add some styles to your css file to target these inputs, you might have to wrap the hubspot embedded form in a class or id so that you don’t change colors of all forms if it’s only just this one form you want to style.

```lia-code-sample
input[type="text"], input[type="password"], input[type="datetime"], input[type="datetime-local"], input[type="date"], input[type="month"], input[type="time"], input[type="week"], input[type="number"], input[type="email"], input[type="url"], input[type="search"], input[type="tel"], input[type="color"], input[type="file"], textarea, select {
color: 'your hex color here';
}

```

Hello! Thank you for the response - I’m very unfamiliar with coding… How would I make sure it only impacts the one form?
