Select Every Form Element Except Buttons with CSS3

Question

Is there a way with CSS3 to select every input-related element that does not have a type attribute of button, reset, submit, or a tag of button? This is what I've gotten so far:

input:not([type="submit"]),
textarea {

    /* ... */

}

input:not([type="submit"]):focus,
textarea:focus {

    /* ... */

}

input:not([type="submit"]):hover,
textarea:hover {

    /* ... */

}

... but it's not as universal as it could be. I'm wanting to apply some nice new transitions to solely input-related fields. If these certain styles get applied to any buttons on the page, it begins to look strange. Any help is appreciated.

Answer 1

Simply chain multiple :not selectors together:

/* Fields */
input:not([type=button]):not([type=reset]):not([type=submit]):not([type=image]),
textarea {
  outline: 3px solid green;
}

/* Buttons */
input[type=button],
input[type=reset],
input[type=submit],
input[type=image],
button {
  outline: 3px solid red;
}

/* Both */
input,
button,
textarea {
  margin: 6px;
}

<h1>Form elements</h1>
<p>Buttons should be outlined in red, fields in green.</p>
