div#search_area input[type=text]{
    width: 179px;
    height: 23px;
    background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, from (#ffffff), to (#f5f5f5));
    background: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, #ffffff, #f5f5f5);
    background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #ffffff, #f5f5f5);
    background: -ms-linear-gradient(top, #ffffff, #f5f5f5);
    background: -o-linear-gradient(top, #ffffff, #f5f5f5);
    outline: 0;
    -webkit-box-shadow: none;
    -moz-box-shadow: none;
    box-shadow: none;
    border-width: 1px;
    border-color: rgb(228,229,228);
    color: rgb(120,123,122);
    font-size: 13px;
    font-family: Arial, serif;

This is because your border-style is most likely set to inset. If you change it to a different style, it won't create the "3D" effect that is causing the two different colors. See here for more details on border-style https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/border-style

you need to also add

border-style: solid;

or dashed, or dotted, whichever one you want
