The :autofill CSS pseudo-class matches when an <input> element has its value autofilled by the browser. The class stops matching if the user edits the field.

Note: The user agent style sheets of many browsers use !important in their :-webkit-autofill style declarations, making them non-overridable by webpages without resorting to JavaScript hacks. For example Chrome has the following in its internal stylesheet:
css
background-color: rgb(232, 240, 254) !important;
background-image: none !important;
color: -internal-light-dark(black, white) !important;
This means that you cannot set the background-color, background-image, or color in your own rules.
Syntax
css
:autofill {
/* ... */
}
Examples
The following example demonstrates the use of the :autofill pseudo-class to change the border of a text field that has been autocompleted by the browser. For the best browser compatibility use both :-webkit-autofill and :autofill.
css
input {
border: 3px solid grey;
border-radius: 3px;
}
input:-webkit-autofill {
border: 3px solid blue;
}
input:autofill {
border: 3px solid blue;
}
html
<form method="post" action="">
<label for="email">Email</label>
<input type="email" name="email" id="email" autocomplete="email" />
</form>
