Yellow Highlighting

F

FlyBoy

Using FP2003 connecting with ASP to Access 2003 database via ASP, I have
created a form for data entry which works as advertised. However, when the
..asp page is brought up in IE6, some of the textboxes are filled with yellow,
while the others are not. All the text boxes go to text fields in the table,
and none of the fields are any different than the others except, obviously,
for the field names.

In the following code, when rendered in IE6, "Provider" is not yellow filled
while "Address1" is.

<p align="left"><b><font face="Tahoma" size="2" color="#000080">
Provider: </font></b>
<input type="text" name="ProviderName" size="71" style="font-family: Tahoma;
font-size: 10pt; color: #000080; font-weight: bold"></p>
<p align="left"><b><font face="Tahoma" size="2" color="#000080">
Address 1: </font></b>
<input type="text" name="Address1" size="69" style="font-family: Tahoma;
font-size: 10pt; color: #000080; font-weight: bold"></p>

I am stumped as to why some are filled yellow and the others are not. Any
suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Do you have Google toolbar installed??

That will cause the effect you're seeing.

Thanks Steve, that was fast. Yes, I do, and I feel kind of foolish now that I
realize it was wanting to autofill for me.

I'd have beat my code up all day looking for the cause and never would have
found it. Thanks for saving my computer from learning how to fly (albeit for
a very short distance ;-) )

LOL.

You're welcome.

People have uninstalled and reinstalled FrontPage trying to figure out that one.

That's nothing! I've talked to ASP.NET developers who have rewritten a
bunch of code trying to figure out what in their code is causing that.
Funny. :)

Hi FlyBoy,

Some of you site visitors may wonder the same thing about the yellow fields.

Google Yellow fields kill for site visitors.

<!--[if IE]>
<script type="text/javascript">
function killAutofill(){
is = document.getElementsByTagName("INPUT");
for(i=0;i<is.length;i++)
is.style.backgroundColor = "";
ss = document.getElementsByTagName("SELECT");
for(i=0;i<ss.length;i++)
ss.style.backgroundColor = "";
}
window.onload=killAutofill;
</script>
<![endif]-->

Hey, thanks! This is an awesome solution. The app I'm writing is for an
intranet, so this script is very viable.

Thanks again.
