Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 161600

(Firefox :: Disability Access, defect)

Description

[preet sangha]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041110 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041110 Firefox/1.0

This is probably a general issue rather than url related.

When I changed the windows (XP) theme to set the colour of tool tips to be
yellow text on blue background the tooltips in firefox changed to yellow on
white background.

When the theme color 1 = grey and font color = black, the firefox tooltip
changed to black on white background.

It therefore appears to me to be simply taking the foreground font colour and
not the background tooltip colour.
 


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. R-Click Desk top 
2. Propeties 
3. Appearance Tab 
4. Advanced Button 
5. Item Drop Down 
6. ToolTip  
(color 1 set to blue, and Font Color set to Yellow) 


Actual Results:  
The firefox tooltip changed to yellow on white background.

Expected Results:  
The firefox tooltip should have changed to changed to yellow on blue background.
