I took a look around to find a public page exhibiting the problem and
found this one:

http://toolsqa.com/automation-practice-form/

This form exhibits the problem at the line labelled "Profession" where
there are invisible check boxes that I can tick for both choices.

This form also demonstrates that I have a similar problem with radio
buttons.  The line labelled "Sex" has invisible radio buttons for its
choices.

I hope this demonstrates it for you as well.

Not aware of any problems with checkboxes but I can test it if you
find a public form with this problem.

I am encountering a new problem here with SM 2.49.1 on Linux Mint
18.2 x64 that may be a bug.  I am finding cases where a form is being
presented using check boxes and they are invisible!  An example of
this is the Medicare plan search page.  When the results are ready
for presentation you are expected to check off boxes for the
alternatives you want to see.

I have been able to work around this in the case where I know a check box is there even if I can't see it, as I can still check it and at that point the box becomes visible.  Where this is a problem is when
the form does not make it obvious that a check box is present.

Is anyone else seeing this?  Is there a new setting somewhere I can set?

Dave



I see no problems. OS is Debian 9.1 with MATE desktop on a Lenovo T510 with User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:51.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/51.0 SeaMonkey/2.48
Build identifier: 20170706221455



I didn't see a problem on 2.48 either, I am seeing it on 2.49.1 here.

Dave

And to further muddy the waters, running 2.49.1 here on Ubuntu Trusty 16.04.3 and the check boxes and radio buttons showed up just fine...


Interesting.  That would appear to point to either a theme problem or a profile problem.  I am using the little monkey 2.0.27 theme here. I will try the page with the default themes and see if the problem is there or not.

Dave

Curiouser and curiouser, I tried this test URL on SM 2.49.1 on another system with the little monkey theme and THERE I see the boxes and radio buttons.  So it appears specific to this instance of the browser.  I am going to try a browser restart and see if that changes anything.

Dave

Restart made no difference.  I am assuming at this point it is a profile setting that is causing it.  Is there a way to dump just the non-default settings from about:config so that I can compare them with the other system and see candidates for the culprit?  I have been using this profile on this system for years, so I would prefer to fix it as opposed to starting over.  Are there any obvious candidates for the cause

Dave


Wouldn't it be nice if SeaMonkey had the Refresh feature that keeps all your bookmarks, passwords, cookies and more like Firefox.

So open the problematic SeaMonkey, go to Tools > Switch Profile and create a test profile.

I'm not seeing any problem with that test form using Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/52.0 SeaMonkey/2.49.1
