I have included a jfiddle below. I tried setting my css code to input[type=text] so that the styling wouln't affect the submit and reset button, but something is wrong and I'm not sure what.

<link css="" href="common/css/complianceCSS.css" media="screen" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> 
    <link css="" href="../privacy/internal/css/turquoise.css" media="screen" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

    <h1 class="allpages">Questions or Concerns about Compliance Issues?</h1>

    <form class="webform" action="http://hsc.unm.edu/scripts/cfmailform/cfmailer.cfm" method="post">
    <!--Required hidden operators--> 
    <input name="recipient" type="hidden" value="bfloran@salud.unm.edu" />
    <input name="subject" type="hidden" value="HSC Compliance Office Email Form" />
    <input type="hidden" name="cc" value="mgwilson@salud.unm.edu" />

    <input name="redirect" type="hidden" value="http://hsc.unm.edu/admin/compliance/ThankYOU.html" /> <!-- Field validation for the user -->

  <label for "name">Your Name (optional):</label>

  <input name="name" type="text" id="name" value="" /><br />
  <label for "name">Your E-mail (Optional):</label>
  <input name="mail" type="text" value="" /><br>
  <label for "name">Comment:</label>
  <textarea name="comment" value="" ></textarea>
  <p>

  <input type="submit" value="Submit" />

  <input type="reset" value="Reset" />

  </form>
