I am working on a simple login site template using html and css (no js yet) and for some reason when I use the border-color property in my css for the .main class and i use the rgba() function like this:
border-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.5);
the rgb works but the alpha does not at all.
I tried doing this instead and i also removed the original line:
border: 60px solid rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.5);
I am using chrome version 108.
html {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
background-image: linear-gradient(red, lime);
}
.main {
margin: 60px;
border: 60px solid;
border-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.5) !important;
/* Set border opacity */
border-radius: 30px;
background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8);
}
.main input {
border-radius: 10px;
height: 30px;
background-color: lightgray;
}
.main input:focus {
background-color: white;
}
.main button {
height: 30px;
border-radius: 15px;
}
<center>
<div class="main">
<h1>Login</h1>
<p>Hello! To continue please log into our service:</p>
<h2>Email</h2>
<input type="email">
<h2>Password</h2>
<input type="password">

<button type="button" onclick='alert("logging in...")'>Login</button>
</div>

I took a look and there’s no issue.
You created two styles very similar and with 50% or more of opacity:
I suggest you to create a good contrast between the .main background and border.
In front-end, you will need to learn about design too. So, one of the videos I suggest you to learn how to manage colors is: https://youtu.be/Qj1FK8n7WgY?list=PLAiIx7LPQuH3FN2B2oBNiWhPCBC2NdqDe
I believe that a better contrast between the background and border, and an opacity below 50% will solve your problem.
You need to add
background-clip: padding-box;
to limit the background to padding area and not have it under your border-color:
