How can I apply CSS on all buttons which are present in that page?

Question

I have created a CSS style class:

.btn { 
  color:#050; 
  font: bold 84% 'trebuchet ms',helvetica,sans-serif; 
  background-color:#fed; 
  border:1px solid; 
  border-color: #696 #363 #363 #696; 
} 

How can I apply this CSS style class to all buttons which are present in the page without adding class="btn" to every button?

Answer 1

If your buttons are <input type="button"> or submit, then this should do it:

input[type="button"], input[type="submit"] { 
    color:#050; 
    font: bold 84% 'trebuchet ms',helvetica,sans-serif; 
    background-color:#fed; 
    border:1px solid; 
    border-color: #696 #363 #363 #696; 
} 

Otherwise, if your buttons are <button>:

button { 
    color:#050; 
    font: old 84% 'trebuchet ms',helvetica,sans-serif; 
    background-color:#fed; 
    border:1px solid; 
    border-color: #696 #363 #363 #696; 
}

To grab all three kinds of buttons:

button, input[type="button"], input[type="submit"] { 
    color:#050; 
    font: bold 84% 'trebuchet ms',helvetica,sans-serif; 
    background-color:#fed; 
    border:1px solid; 
    border-color: #696 #363 #363 #696; 
} 

Answer 2

button{ 
  color:#050; 
  font: bold 84% 'trebuchet ms',helvetica,sans-serif; 
  background-color:#fed; 
  border:1px solid; 
  border-color: #696 #363 #363 #696; 
} 

OR

input[type="button"]{ 
  color:#050; 
  font: bold 84% 'trebuchet ms',helvetica,sans-serif; 
  background-color:#fed; 
  border:1px solid; 
  border-color: #696 #363 #363 #696; 
}
