Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

Regardless of the "Use system colors" option being unchecked, Firefox uses the theme colors in form fields. So, if you use a dark theme, all of the form fields are dark. This occurred in ff2 on Gutsy as well as ff3 on Hardy. I cannot pin down the event that caused it to start malfunctioning as it did work correctly after initially installing Gutsy.

Current Software:

Ubuntu 8.04
Firefox 3.0 b5

Please let me know what other information I can provide to aid the investigation of this bug.

Thank you for your bugreport. Since this seems to be an issue with
version 3 of the firefox browser, I'm reassigning the package.
