Has anyone experienced the form controls (textboxes) having a yellow background to them in IE6? I'm thinking it's an option in IE, but I don't know when I would have set it. It's really bothering me... any ideas?
I'm talking about all textboxes, not just one's coded by myself.

The easiest method is to use CSS. This will cause all textareas to have a yellow background with black text.
If you are using the Google toolbar and have set "auto fill" it will show those form text boxes as yellow.

GaryK - Thanks for the quick reply, but I think you've mis-understood my question... I'm not looking to make my textboxes yellow... My problem is that my IE6 displays all the textboxes (from all webpages) with a yellow background. I'm not sure why, but I don't like it and would like to get rid of it... any ideas how?

The important thing is your problem is solved and we both learned something from the process. Thanks, willybfriendly for educating CodeDude and myself.

CodeDude, have you installed Google Toolbar [toolbar.google.com]?
