Why Textbox in same page will have different layout?

[Guest]

I have few textboxes in a page(.aspx), and some of the textboxes with white
color BackColor, blue color Border Line (like xp-style control), but some of
the textboxes with yellow color BackColor, without blue color Border Line
(like traditional 3D textbox style). Why this happen?

Please help......thanks.

I heard that the Google Bar gives this appearence to some textboxes (those
it can autofill or something similar). Do you have this bar installed ?

Hi Chrysan,
The yellow textboxes can be autofilled by the toolbar from the internet
explorer. Check if you have any toolbars installed and disable the autofill
option..

This brings up a good point. If you're a developer, it's best not to have
this sort of "gizmo" installed on our development machine. It tends to
interfere with the development/debugging process. That is, browser helpers
in particular change the default behavior of the browser, making it more
difficult to see how the app will be rendered in a typical browser.

I tend to leave my entire OS user interface in "factory" condition as a
rule. This actually helps me when I have to go from one computer to another
now and then, here at the orifice. I do, however, prefer the classic,
"non-XP style" desktop. So I allow myself that little indiscretion. Still,
when Vista comes out, it will be time to catch up.

What you are saying makes sense if you QA the app against these popular
"gizmos". Otherwise you just re-direct the problem to the customer. And in
these days you hardly can demand the customer to strip his/her browser to
the factory default.

yes, I do have Google toolbar being installed. But, how do I diable the
autofill option or remove the Google toolbar program is the only way?

Thanks.
