Author CSS text fields

I noticed when trying to access my email form at:
http://www.magic2k.com/magicmail/index.php from another comuter, that the
text feilds can sometimes colour themselves a colour other than the deep red
I want. though the text remains yellow. It's the same browser (Internet
Explorer) any reasons why this might be happening?

Do you have Google tool bar (or something similar) set up on your
browser? If you have, and you have set up this to identify personal
autofill fields, then this is what will happen.

In the Googlebar options, under More: "Automatically highlight fields
that AutoFill can fill". Untick it.

What he's saying is - it's MY google toolbar, to configure how I want.
And it's no business of yours or any other webmaster.

You, as the webmaster, can control how a website looks only on YOUR
machine. You can only RECOMMEND what it looks like on my machine. I
can take the same website, and in my browser, turn off images, change
default colors, etc. But these are my choices on how I want my browser
to react. You have no business screwing with them.
