1216138 - New options page is unreadable with some color settings

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1207084

(Core :: CSS Parsing and Computation, defect)

Description

[ejlddll]

Attachment: Screenshot of unreadable Options screen (Firefox 41.0.1, Windows)

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:36.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/36.0 SeaMonkey/2.33.1
Build ID: 20150625235107

Steps to reproduce:

Open Options in Firefox 41.0.1 (or later, I assume) with the following settings already in place under Options -> Content -> Colors:  white text, black or dark background, "Override the colors specified by the page with my selections above" -> Always


Actual results:

The main area of the Options page is displayed with white text on a white background, which is unreadable.



Expected results:

Optimal result:  the Options page should respect the settings given and style itself with white text on a dark background.

OR

Acceptable result:  the Options page overrides the text color *and* the background color to produce a combination of colors with enough contrast to be readable.
