Forgive me is this is a stupid question, but i need help. I want to change border color of TEXTAREA on focus. but my code doesn't seem to working properly.

Kindly view code on fiddle.

<form name = "myform" method = "post" action="insert.php"  onsubmit="return validateform()" style="width:40%">
        <input type="text" placeholder="Enter Name." name="name" maxlength="300" class="input">
        <input type="email" placeholder="Enter E-mail." name="address" maxlength="300" class="input">
