 * Hi,
 * After doing view source code on browser I had observed that the css styles you
   have added are included in following format:
 *     ```
       <style>input[type=&quot;email&quot;], input[type=&quot;tel&quot;]{
           padding: 3px;
       	border: 1px solid #888;
       }</style>
       ```
   
 * I suggest you to change it to following:
 *     ```
       input[type=email], input[type=tel]{
           padding: 3px;
       	border: 1px solid #888;
       }
       ```
   
 * This should probably an instant fix to your issue.
 * However for a permanent solution I would suggest to add the styles in a separate
   or global css file of the active theme.
 * Now hope this helps to resolve your issue.
 * Thanks.

 * Yeah Thanks a lot,
 * [type=email] instead of [type=”email”] fixed it!!!

   know that [@wallbreaker](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wallbreaker/) is
   not associated with WordPress in any way and you should not give your login details
