Fix textbox background in Firefox (?)

Posted April 3rd, 2009 by Anonymous

For some sites, I can't see text in textbox as I type with my dark skin (Neon). Some sites show white text on black background (i.e google.com), some black text on white background (i.e searching in gmail with default theme) and some, the annoying ones, show white text on white background (i.e yahoo.com). Or is this issue only with textbox bgcolor set to #fff in css?
