I don't get a background color for a TEXTAREA <STYLE> .lime { background-color: lime; } </STYLE> <SCRIPT> </SCRIPT> </HEAD> <BODY> <FORM NAME="aForm"> <TEXTAREA NAME="aField" CLASS="lime" COLS="20" ROWS="5"> Kibology </TEXTAREA> </FORM> <BUTTON ONCLICK="var f = document.aForm.aField; if (f.style.backgroundColor == '' || f.style.backgroundColor == 'lime') f.style.backgroundColor = 'white'; else f.style.backgroundColor = 'lime';"> toggle color </BUTTON> </BODY> Same settings/code for INPUT TYPE="text" work.

Resolution: --- → DUPLICATE
Same problem as with the font... There is a hard-coded style rule called PlaintextInitalStyle in nsTextEditRules.cpp that overrides different settings like 'font-family' and 'background-color'. Marked dup of 17303. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 17303 ***
Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
