To clarify, instead of Firefox trying to make an informed decision based on the system/GTK theme, can Firefox just default to the colours specified in the Content tab in Colors and pretend that GTK doesn't exist? (only in the viewport)
the only alternative to this problem is to install extensions that allow the user to override page themes but that is ultimately messy and can also break things in unexpected ways. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/220263 Title: Bad Firefox integration with dark themes Status in Mozilla Firefox: Fix Released Status in XULRunner: Confirmed Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I'm using Mozilla Firefox 3 Beta 5 on Ubuntu 8.04 with a dark theme. Now I see all the input boxes and buttons filled with grey colour. This happened even with Firefox 2, but I solved that problem with a quick guide under the comment "firefox fix" by Proton at the bottom of this page: http://www.gnome- look.org/content/show.php/Grey+Neu?content=60824 In Firefox 3 I can't correct this problem.
