 * hi , in the styles tab in the admin , there is an option to choose border-style,
   now , when the input is on focus , in every way I have tried I cant seem to override
   this css or better find the css line in a file that I can delete this line : 
   how to do this?

   wrapper {
    border-style: dashed !important; }

 * yes I have added links to the images of the form – as you can see the input has
   only border-bottom .the problem starts only when i click in the input field –
   meaning INPUT:fOCUS and then the whole boredrs reappear – I dont want that,I 
   want that also in focus the style remains **only border-bottom**
 * I have tried all sorts of css overrides but nothing worked
    I know a bit of js
   and php so if its simpler you can tell how delete it.

 * mewrd,
 * Based on your screenshots you made a lot of form styles customization.
 * However, it is a bit nonstandard, but here is settings for input fields:
    [http://c2n.me/3mZ9yJv.png](http://c2n.me/3mZ9yJv.png)
   that allows to make result similar to your screens: [http://c2n.me/3mZ9Qda.png](http://c2n.me/3mZ9Qda.png)
   and here is focus: [http://c2n.me/3mZa5bu.png](http://c2n.me/3mZa5bu.png).
 * Is this help you? If not, could you pls send link on your site here on our email:

 * Excellent:)) this—-> **border-size : 0 0 1px**
 * what helped :)))
 * still strange, though that adding -!important- to my css style cant override 
   the plugin style.
 * but thank you very much all is good now:)))

 * It is not strange. It is classic work of the style properties priority. !important
   that added inside <style> tag has hide priority rater than !important in the 
   external CSS file. The higher priority has in-line style that added directly 
   for html tag.
 * So glad we were able to help you with your issue.
