Comment (by RDall):

 In some of the [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/:-moz-
 placeholder documentation I looked up on placeholder] the colour was
 either a hex code or a color. I never saw the use of the rgba in any of
 the examples.

 What was happening was the placeholder couldn't read the rgba style.

 In conversation with iamtakashi on IRC I said I wanted to keep to his
 colours implemented but this caused confusion as that is what I was over
 writing in my patch.

 I had used the hex instead of the rgba because the rgba wasn't highlighted
 properly in my code editor. see screenshot
 http://cl.ly/image/3G302O3F1W3W. So I automatically switch to Hex without
 even thinking about the actual issue.

 This second patch translates the rgba to a hex colour so the placeholder
 can properly have iamtakashi previous style applied but in a hex format
 that can be read by the placeholder.

 Also I did increase the opacity of the border around the search bar as I
 though it was a little lost as well.
