Hello,

I love the script! Only having one little problem - after clicking on "sign the guestbook", the "Name" and "E-mail" input fields first are green, as I want them to be, but then change to yellow. I'm assuming that is because they are required fields? I know I've changed them correctly as they show up for a split second with the correct color. How can I disable they from turning yellow? My text color is white, they are currently unreadable. Here is a pic of the problem:

Hello Kman,

I tested in Firefox 1.5 and Internet Explorer 6.0 and it all looks fine (everything is green).

As far as I can remember it is a Internet Explorer browser setting, I just can't remember which setting. So I don't think you can correct the setting in your page. The user must change it's browser setting to see your page the way you want it.

Greetings,

Thanks.

If anyone has any idea what that setting and wouldn't mind helping me out I would appreciate it, I didn't have any luck.

If not, would you happen to know what line I have to specifically change to change the text in the input fields to black?

Hello Kman,

I used Google to help you.

The yellow color is is caused by having the Google Toolbar installed and the AutoFill option enabled.
Here's a link with more information about the Google Toolbar problem and how to solve it http://code.jenseng.com/google/.

For black text find this part in the style.css file

Code: Select all

INPUT {
	font-size: 11px;
	font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
	color:#000000;
	background-color:#FFFFFF;
}

The color:#000000; is the black color of the text. By changing the value of #000000 you can get different text colors.

Thanks a lot! I'm a rookie at this stuff but I'll try my best at inserting that code mentioned in the link.
