Skin text color

August 17, 2003 1:44 AM from

I've d/l and am using Aleksyandr's "Aero" skin, which is excellent, but I noticed that when I open Google, and go to type in the search box, my text doesn't show up...the text is white on a white background. Is there a way to change the text color only in forms?

Thanks!

Thats a common problem.Website buttons dont use the color from the system buttons color like they should.maybe they will come up with a fix for that one of these days.

I'm sorry,you meant text fields.That comes from window background color I think.The text color is the same as the status bar but I dont remember where that is set.

Same here...all other websites (that I've checked) have their form fields showing as a dark grey (similar to Aero skin's fields)...but for some reason Google's is locked as white. How strange...

edit: just checked the other tabs on the Google site (Images, Directory, etc.) and those have dark grey fields. Oh well, I'll learn to live with it!
