Title: Some text boxes ...
Post by: v8central on October 03, 2005, 11:29:00 pm: Some text boxes seem to have a mind of their own in relation to the background color they use. When I'm changing my profile on this site "some" of the boxes have a yellowih background. I'm customising the CSS on my new site and I have the same problem but because I am using a black page and white text the values are impossible to read on yellow.

Why do these textboxes defy the CSS rules ?

It could be that no class has been defined for the "box" in question, or that it has been overwritten with a style= parameter in the php file itself. Hard to say.

My testing page is : http://www.laurengray.com/gallery/tester.php (I moved the name after the comments)
Same problem here : http://www.laurengray.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=8&pos=8

and the same problem on this site here : http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?action=profile;u=17848;sa=forumProfile - ICQ is fine, but AIM, MSN, YIM are yellow backgrounds.

I just can't see how it works like this.

I noticed this problem when showing a friend my own website on their home computer. It must be something like a rendering error on certain setups. I noticed it on IE6 but not with Firefox. I don't get the problem and your site looks fine on my own computer. Can you try another computer to be sure? Can you try Firefox or Opera?

Regards
Steve.

try clearing your cache.. or Ctrl +F5 to force a refresh if on IE.

Probably old cookies and cached files.

BINGO !!!! ... I would NEVER have thought of that, but that was the answer :) :)

I don't think I'll forget that one in a hurry, and it explains why the yellow textboxes were in weird places on different forms.

Problem solved, and thanks again :)
