Hi Derrell, I had the same problem when I was developing the DarkTheme contribution, and I posted a similar question to the mailing list some 1.5 years ago: http://qooxdoo.678.n2.nabble.com/Qooxdoo-themes-td5510734.html#a5514201. Since I never got any response regarding this particular theming issue I didn't follow up this subject and eventually forgot about it.
Your posting now reminded me of the problem, so I googled a bit and finally found this thread at stackoverflow.com: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2043695/textareaselection-and-moz-selection. This was the essential hint, and I found a solution for Firefox which I've successfully tested with my di-lemmata application using the DarkTheme: Attach a CSS file to your application and add the following style definition: p::-moz-selection, input::-moz-selection, textarea::-moz-selection, div::-moz-selection { color: <myColor>; background-color: <myBackgroundColor>; } This is just a first shot, i. e. I don't know (yet) which CSS selectors you need to address in order to control the colors of selected input in non-Mozilla browsers. As soon as I find some time I'll dig a bit deeper into this issue. Anyway, thanks a lot for the reminder ;-) Norbert Am 11.02.2012 04:27, schrieb Derrell Lipman: > Reference the attached image.
