You can do it with CSS inline, without using an external stylesheet. If you really must:

<input type="text" style="background-color:#FFFFCC;" />

To change the default style (including color) of an HTML element from the default style that the browser uses, you must apply the style via CSS or JavaScript.

No, that is not possible without CSS (if you want to use things like colors). You can do it without JavaScript, though. This would be the CSS for doing it:

.textbox {
   background-color: #FF0000;
}

And the markup:

<textarea class="textbox" rows="10" cols="30"></textarea>
