Check that the element which is not being styled is definitely a <textarea>
.
If it is, perhaps a later style overrides the one you've added - test this by putting !important
at the end of your new styles e.g:
textarea:focus, input:focus, input[type]:focus, .uneditable-input:focus {
border-color: rgba(229, 103, 23, 0.8)!important;
box-shadow: 0 1px 1px rgba(229, 103, 23, 0.075) inset, 0 0 8px rgba(229, 103, 23, 0.6)!important;
outline: 0 none!important;
}
If it is being overriden it would be better practice to set a new class on your textarea and apply your desired styles to that class, later in the css than the overriding style.
