I still am interested to know if anybody can see this, too. It would be hard to believe that the problem/bug only appears on my XP computer - or only on a few with a similar configuration. But of course everything could be possible.
Welcome to XP.
Rev now supports native appearances for fields on XP when the field's default values are left in place (borderWidth set to 2). So what your screen show at <http://www.sanke.org/RevTestPage/> is showing is XP's rendering of the field border.
You'll see a similar thing on OS X: while the appearance differs from XP, when a field border is set to the default value of 2 OS routines are used to render the control instead of the engine's.
I think this should be overridable. Standard and Rectangle style buttons also take on native appearances, but you can override this by specifying a backgroundColor.
Perhaps we need a Bugzilla request so that if the borderColor is set the OS no longer draws the control and it uses the engine's internal routines.
Please post the bug number after you log it so we can vote for that enhancement.
In the meantime a workaround is to set the style of the field to "shadow" instead of "rectangle" or "scrolling", and then to prevent the shadow from drawing set its shadowwidth to 0 (zero). Shadow-style fields are always drawn by the engine, so you should get what you're after with those.
