I have called a php function to a page (a mailing list)

All works fine except the colour

PHP Code:

<form method="POST" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']; ?>?do=add">
Email Address: <input type="text" name="email"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

The text "Email Address" is fine and in black.
the problem is the input box and submit button are both white and as the person enters thier email address in the box thier text is white also thus making it impossible to read, the same applies to the submit button although it says "submit" you cant see it as its white on white.

I dont really want to go into style sheets etc as its only a small peice of code ....

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

This actually isnt a php function. You could delete everything between those php tags and the form would still work fine.

That leaves the html. The html is styled with css and css is colouring your input label.

Find the css and delete a 'color' line that looks like:

input {
   color: #FFFFFF;
}

.. after an 'input' rule. Else post your css.

Thanks for your reply !
I have looked and this is what is in the index.php page

PHP Code:

<style type="text/css">
<!--
body {
 background-image: url(i/Gradient.jpg);
}
body,td,th {
 color: #FFFFFF;
}
.style1 {color: #FFFFFF}
.style2 {color: #FFFFFF; font-weight: bold; }
.style4 {
 font-size: 11px;
 color: #FFFFFF;
 font-weight: bold;
}
a:link {
 text-decoration: none;
}
a:visited {
 text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover {
 text-decoration: underline;
}
a:active {
 text-decoration: none;
}
.style5 {color: #FFF600; font-weight: bold; }
.style3 { color: #fff600;
 font-weight: bold;
}
.style6 { color: #FFCC33;
 font-weight: bold;
}
-->
</style> 


Thanks again

The input's text colour is being inherited from a style applied to a parent element. More than likely body,td,th { color: #FFFFFF; }. This makes white the default text colour.

If you dont want to fix this yourself, you'll have to post all html source from the opening html tag to the end of the form in question.
