I'd ingnore border styles (inset, outset, etc.) in favor of styling the sides 
individually.

Something like the following might work - 

XHTML

<input class="textbox" type="text" name="" />
<input class="submit" type="submit" value="Submit" />

CSS

.textbox {
border-style: solid;
border-width: 2px 1px 1px 1px;
border-color: #000 #bbb #bbb #000;
background-color: #fff;
}

.submit {
border-style: solid;
border-width: 1px;
border-color: #bbb #000 #000 #bbb;
background-color: #c0c0c0;
}

Adjust to suit.
