Text in Firefox

Postby schiavonske1013 » Sat Oct 20, 2007 8:50 am

Hello Everyone,

I seem to be having problems with text in Firefox. When I enter things in text boxes, they appears to be to close a color to the text box background and I really can't see it. Also, in drop down menus, I have to put my mouse over an option to see it, but I can't see them all at once like I usually can. Does this have something to do with the colors? I looked in Windows to see if I had a problem, but it was fine. Thanks.

It is a known bug in firefox's CSS (Cascading Style Sheet) the below code as well as just running the upgrade icon on the desktop will fix it. I suggest the upgrade Icon and selecting nothing to install at the end of the script it will fix it. it will happen every time your firefox gets upgraded until they realize not everyone uses a light theme.

I have created a folder on my server called instant fix, I will store files there that just do that, please understand the fix I provide is for firefox nothing I did.

Open a terminal... Applications>>Accessories>>Terminal

Do nothing below until I can access that site... I am uploading to refill the repo 14 hours a - s makes the net really slow housewide until it is done.

cd /usr/share/firefox
sudo wget http://ubuntusoftware.info/instantfix/userContent.css
