Cannot set input and textarea text color #7

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

From AMO site: 
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/color-toggle/reviews/449992/

I am interpreting this to mean that the user want the font color to be toggled 
as well.

First, thanks for making this great extension!  I have one on-going issue which 
I believe is similar to issue #7:

On SOME websites, under reverse-video mode the entire input textbook become 
black -- including the texts and cursor -- making it impossible to see what I 
have typed.

Two examples of websites with this issue:
(1) gmail (2) ubuntuforums.org

Two examples of websites for which this is not an issue (as far as I can tell)
(1) nytimes.com (2) askubuntu. <-- in both cases the input textboxes seem (?) 
to have a default color

Before I discover the colortoggle extension I manually set the color using (not 
due to me)

javascript:(function(){N=document.createElement('link');S='*{background:black%20
!important;color:lightgrey%20!important}:link,:link%20*{color:#ddddff%20!importa
nt}:visited,:visited%20*{color:#ddffdd%20!important}';N.rel='stylesheet';N.href=
'data:text/css,'+escape(S);document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(
N)})()

which (?) override the color of input box and set the color the input box text. 
 I prefer using colortoggle than this manual change.

Thanks for looking into this!

After looking into this, I have come to the conclusion that this problem exists 
with Firefox itself rather than the extension.

I have filed bug #967069 (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=967069) 
for this issue.

Since this bug doesn't seem to be solved , one solution is to set browser.display.use_focused_colors to true in about:config (or via extension) . This lets you use the relevant textarea while you click on it , with the default focus colors working pretty well, and of course are changeable.
