Any other color, even #fffffe, will display correctly. This appears to be somehow linked to the Windows appearance styles. The problem exists on the "Windows XP style", but if you switch to the "Windows Classic style", the white background displays properly. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to the Appearance tab of the Display properties 2. Set it to "Windows XP style" 3. Look at the colors on the example html provided below Actual Results: The textbox that was produced with "<textarea class="whiteback" readonly>", shows a light grey background. Expected Results: I would expect the textbox to display the background color specified. Here is a test case: <html> <head> <title>bug</title> <style type="text/css"> .whiteback {background: white} .offwhiteback {background: #fffffe} </style> </head> <body> <br> <textarea class="whiteback" readonly rows="10" cols="54"> This should have a white background. On Windows XP using XP style it's gray. If you take away readonly, use a different color, or use Windows Classic style it works as expected. </textarea> <br> <textarea class="offwhiteback" readonly rows="10" cols="25"> This background is not really white. </textarea> <textarea class="whiteback" rows="10" cols="25"> And this one is not readonly. </textarea> </body> </html>
