Serach boxes invisible #97

Open cheeryble opened 11 years ago

cheeryble commented 11 years ago

Hi there first thanks to anyone involved with NoSquint. I help an 85 year old friend and he finds viewing much easier with NoSqunit and chooses yellow text on black. It does thebasic job with less confusion than other methods of enlarging. We have one big problem. With a black background , it usually becomes a matter of guesswork where a search box is. I can work it out because I can see the cursor change shape in the box, and a couple of pixels flashing.....but my friend, with macular degeneration certainly cannot. If one gets say the starting Google search page up there is a box visible. If however one looks for the search box after at the top of the page on which Google has delivered hits, it is all but invisible. Same goes for things like Amazon etc etc. I thought of intermediate colours but that would be less contrasting for him to read.

Any solution come to mind?

Again thanks for NoSquint it's the best so far and I'm sure many would appreciate more tweaking.....those for who the internet is their main link to outside.

I'll add that one presumably cannot see the search box because the border is invisible

hi there, im having the same type of problem i guess, like when i wanna share anything on fbk for instance, the text gets black on a black back, it's too bad because the rest of what the plugin does is brilliant ! =)
