IE form input Highlight problem
These days , working on one of my projects, almost finishing it, I got stuck at a relative simple thing. But it took me so long time to figure it out. The problem was that some of my form inputs on a page were looking funny in IE. They had a background of light yellow. I’ve tried everything in CSS to change it, even inline styles, !important modifier and … nothing. That background won’t dissapear.
Google’ing a few hours I found the problem. I was using Google Toolbar and that has a setting to highlight forms. I never knew about it. So simple but get me so much trouble. So I deactivated it and everything works fine 
If youhave that same trouble, You don’t even need to deactivate it, but you can go to Options from your Google toolbar and then More and then uncheck Automatically Highlight Fields that AutoFill can fil.
That would be it. Hope it’s useful and somebody there won’t loose as much time as I did before finding out what was wrong.
