Version: (using KDE KDE 3.2.0) Installed from: Gentoo Packages Compiler: 3.3.2 OS: Linux Check boxes and radio buttons in Konqueror web forms use: Standard Background as their background color and Button Text as their foreground color Check boxes and radio buttons in "normal" applications use: Standard Background as their background color and Standard Text as their foreground color This can result in unusable radio and check box buttons in web forms with color schemes such as the following: [Color Scheme] Name=dark blue white activeBackground=65,101,148 activeBlend=0,40,74 activeForeground=255,255,255 activeTitleBtnBg=66,103,148 alternateBackground=0,66,123 background=66,103,148 buttonBackground=66,103,148 buttonForeground=255,255,255 contrast=8 foreground=255,255,255 frame=66,103,148 handle=66,103,148 inactiveBackground=66,103,148 inactiveBlend=74,113,164 inactiveForeground=0,42,78 inactiveFrame=66,103,148 inactiveHandle=66,103,148 inactiveTitleBtnBg=66,103,148 linkColor=0,0,192 selectBackground=92,179,255 selectForeground=0,0,0 visitedLinkColor=128,0,128 windowBackground=255,251,251 windowForeground=0,0,0 To reproduce apply the above color scheme and then visit a web page that uses check boxes and/or radio buttons in forms such as: http://www.echoecho.com/htmlforms09.htm (check boxes) http://www.echoecho.com/htmlforms10.htm (radio buttons) I think the easiest fix would be to make the make web form check boxes and radio buttons use Standard Text as their foreground color. P.S. The above color scheme was created to get around the fact that the default Dark Blue color scheme results in many web pages being nearly unreadable as they render with black text on a dark blue background. I'm guessing that's "intended" behavior?
This is still the case in r575787, but I'm not sure if it's a bug or intended behaviour
I've noticed this too as I like to use darker color schemes and konq will render web pages in your color scheme and make them unreadable.
I guess "rendering web pages without their own colour scheme with the desktop's colour scheme" is intended behaviour. What should one do about this? When I choose unreadable colours on my web page it's a bug in my weg page, not in Konqueror. It's the same when I choose only a black foreground colour on my web page but don't set the pages background as I expect the user to have a white background by default. I often have some leight brown and orange colours on my desktop - there are many websites that forget to set their background to white.
I've tried in 4.0.3 using all the available colour schemes included in system settings and could see all the check boxes and radio buttons on the example pages given. possibly still could be an issue with particular schemes though.
I tried reproducing this. On 3.5.9 it turns out to be still the same. It's interesting that the colours on kde4 seem to behave just the the opposite.
