input type = text

when page completed loaded displays yellow background

[Alternative Future]

Hi all,

Have a problem with some of my form fields (text boxes) where when the page has loaded they have a default background of a yellowish color. Any one seen this? And is there anyway on preventing it?

Many thanks for all help,

Is it caused by the auto-complete on your GoogleBar?

Do you have the google toolbar installed? The google toolbar can cause arbitrary fields to have a yellow background.

I dont know why the toolbar causes this, but
without it the fields should appear normal. Look at forms on other sites and you will probably notice the same thing.

Thanks,

Googlebar-> Options-> More Tab
uncheck automatically highlight fields that AutoFill can fill

Seems to be the trick. Thanks Graham

Ahh... Yeah am guilty of having the google toolbar installed.
Is there any other way of removing this effect from the page without actually turning the settings off in the googlebar?
I.e. with inline/external style control?

Thanks grahamstewart & nexsys
