Hi all,
I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed some odd behavious with IE6.0
colouring input boxes yellow (or any other colour!) unexpectedly?
I am using IE6.0.2 on WinXP Pro.
I had a bug report from my boss and some clients, complaining that
they were seeing yellow text input boxes on our site (when the boxes
*should* be styled grey with CSS). After some investigation I found
that not only was the same happening on my own machine on our site,
but that I've also seen it happening on other *sites* (e.g.
streetmap.co.uk , theregister.co. uk, even on the google groups sign-in
page).
I've not observed the same behaviour in Mozilla or NS (however, I've
not tested in other versions of IE). It seems to be completely random:
e.g. I can have two identically-constructed input boxes on one page,
and one will be yellow and the other styled as it is intended to be.
Has anyone else noticed the same behaviour? Is it a known IE issue? (I
can't find any relevant bug reports). Or is it just something to do
with the alignment of the planets over our office? :-)
TIA,
Laura.

It's not a bug, it's 'done' by the Google Toolbar.
It highlights input boxes with certain names. http://www.htmldog.com/ptg/archives/000017.php

Beat me to that. If you use the Wand feature in Opera this occurs as well.

I know this isn't really an ASP question, but I thought you guys might know
the answer
being that you work with textboxes alot.
All of a sudden about 50% of my textboxes are yellow (as opposed to the
usual
white color). It started when I started on an ASP project, but this could
have
been coincidental. I have noticed that it shows yellow textboxes on many
other webpages.

I would to implement a yellow box to contain some description for visitor to

I don't know how to implement this kind of yellow box. The nearest idea of

Hi,
Even I specifically mentioned "white" as background color of all
ASP:TextBoxes of my form, Some of them come up with yellow background.
I guess it should be kind of ASP.NET behaviour, but I don't know what
exactly it means.
What is the meaning of that yellow BG color of ASP:TextBoxes ? How can I
have control over it?

OK, the direct method of setting the background color on a text-only (no
panels) statusbar control seems to fail:
Me.StatusBar1.Text = "<whatever> failed.>
Me.StatusBar1.Backcolor = Color.Yellow ' nothing changes
Me.StatusBar1.Refresh ' doesn't help either.
What convoluted work-around (must be if the simple, direct method fails) is
there for this?

I am trying to develop something in php to do a search in the yellow
pages but I dont know how. I am sure that all of the online companies
such as yp.com and yellowbook.com do not store all of that information
on their own database but I dont know where they get it.
Do you know how I can get that data and and some hints on how to code
it? I am new to php.
Thanks

I've got a TreeView that's loaded with names.
Screen snap at http://tinyurl.com/329a8m
A yellow rectangle appears as the cursor navigates the tree list.
If the cursor is left on an entry, the rectangle spontaneously
disappears after approximately 3 seconds.
In a small way, I find it annoying and assume that at least some
of my users will too.
