(Camino Graveyard :: HTML Form Controls, defect)

Description

[S Woodside]

This button on Altavista has white text and it's difficult to read. I'll attach
a snap.

Attachment: the offending button

Comment 2

[S Woodside]

This is my own build from about 2 days ago.

Comment 3

[Greg K.]

If you try the URL in Mozilla, you'll see that the page sets a dark red
background color on the button. So, this is a dup of the
Camino-honors-foreground-but-not-background-colors-on-form-widgets bug.

[S Woodside]

I can't find anything, just Bug 161261. Anyway, my comment is that Camino should
obviously do either both or none ... I vote for none personally, to honour the
Aqua HIG.

-> form controls

I'm seeing this on the following page as well (Camino 2003032008):

waiting on response to bug 161261 comment 26 to mark this new or dupe

Confirming. This is about buttons, we'll keep it separate from textareas.

Comment 9

Removing DUPEME since we may want to treat buttons and other widgets differently.
