Font color changed on Confirmation page

J

Jim Hank

I have a website that was developed using FrontPage 2003 using the Breeze
theme. This theme has a dark blue background and all body text is white.
There are several forms in this site and all are experiencing the same
problem.

All forms have a confirmation page that that displays some of the pertinent
information entered by the user. All confirmation pages works fine in my
development/test environment which includes web servers running WIN2003, IIS,
and FP Extensions 2002.
However, when I published this site to the production web server, and enter
a test transaction, all text the confirmation page is shown in black rather
than white. The fact that this black text is displayed on a dark blue
background makes the text virtually unreadable.
See feedback form located at: http://www.newimageautoglass.com/feedback.htm
(To re-create problem: Simply enter Type Feedback and First Name and submit
form.)

Again, everything works perfectly in the test environment (i.e., white text
is displayed on the blue background.)

Any help in resolving this problem will be greatly appreciated.

That is because you have wrapped each of your confirmation fields in the page
http://www.newimageautoglass.com/Feefback_Confirmation.htm in a blue font tag (<font color="#0000FF">)

As in:
<p style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0"><strong>Last Name:
<font color="#0000FF">
<!--webbot bot="ConfirmationField" S-Field="LastName" --></font></strong></p>

If you want your theme to manage the colors (white) remove the font tags so you just have
<p><strong>Last Name: <!--webbot bot="ConfirmationField" S-Field="LastName" --></strong></p>

Stefan,
Thanks for isolating this problem, the font colors specified in the theme
are being changed in the production web hosting environment. You were also
right about the confirmation field colors; I change them to create a dramatic
effect.

However, I did not change any other font colors on the page.
I am allowing the theme manage the font colors but there is something on the
production web server that is changing the theme css. BTW, the specified
theme is not being applied to individual pages, it was applied to a DWT and
the DWT is applied to each of the pages in the site.

I did not change the font colors of the confirmation field labels or any
other text in the body of the confirmation page. The colors of these text
fields are controlled by the theme and should be shown as white. Thank again,
and I will ask the hosting company’s tech to take a look at the FP
extensions/shtml.dll running on the production web hosting system.
