<style>
    ::-webkit-input-placeholder { 
        color:red; 
     }
    ::-moz-placeholder { 
        color:red; 
    } /* firefox 22+ */
    :-ms-input-placeholder { 
        color:red; 
    } /* ie10,11 */
    input:-moz-placeholder { 
        color:red; 
    }
 </style>

跨浏览器解决方案：

/* all elements */
::-webkit-input-placeholder { color:#f00; }
::-moz-placeholder { color:#f00; } /* firefox 19+ */
:-ms-input-placeholder { color:#f00; } /* ie */
input:-moz-placeholder { color:#f00; }

/* individual elements: webkit */
#field2::-webkit-input-placeholder { color:#00f; }
#field3::-webkit-input-placeholder { color:#090; background:lightgreen; text-transform:uppercase; }
#field4::-webkit-input-placeholder { font-style:italic; text-decoration:overline; letter-spacing:3px; color:#999; }

/* individual elements: mozilla */
#field2::-moz-placeholder { color:#00f; }
#field3::-moz-placeholder { color:#090; background:lightgreen; text-transform:uppercase; }
#field4::-moz-placeholder { font-style:italic; text-decoration:overline; letter-spacing:3px; color:#999; }

最简单的方法是：

#yourInput::placeholder {
    color: red;/*As an example*/
}
/* if that would not work, you can always try styling the attribute itself: */
#myInput[placeholder] {
    color: red;
}

输入：：占位符｛color:red；｝<input-type=“text”placeholder=“value”>

此代码将使用：：占位符选择器更改占位符的颜色。

::-webkit-input-placeholder { 
    /* Edge */
    color: red;
}

:-ms-input-placeholder { 
    /* Internet Explorer */
    color: red;
}

::placeholder {
    color: red;
}

在Firefox和Internet Explorer中，正常输入文本颜色覆盖占位符的颜色属性。所以，我们需要

::-webkit-input-placeholder { 
    color: red; text-overflow: ellipsis; 
}
:-moz-placeholder { 
    color: #acacac !important; text-overflow: ellipsis; 
}
::-moz-placeholder { 
    color: #acacac !important; text-overflow: ellipsis; 
} /* For the future */
:-ms-input-placeholder { 
    color: #acacac !important; text-overflow: ellipsis; 
}
