On the given website, there is a keyword search field. When I type in that field
(it appears white to me), I cannot see my text because the website has the text
for that field set to the color white. This works okay in IE because the input
field's backgroud color is blue, but in mozilla the background color is white so
one cannot see the text that they have typed unless they highlight it.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Goto http://www.coolquotescollection.com/cat/computer/10/
2. Look at the keyword search field

Actual Results:  
The background color for the field is white.

Expected Results:  
The background color should be blue.

This is because the CSS that styles the INPUT box is using invalid syntax thst
Mozilla is ignoring:

INPUT.menu		{ background-color: '#004580'; border-color: '#005590'; 
color: white; }

There should be no quotes around the hex colors. Opera 7 also correctly ignores
the invalid syntax.
