Hope someone can help with this one. Within a Dreamweaver form I am using a table to place labels, textfields and textareas. The problem I am having is that when I set up a textfield with the word "phone", "email" or "name" in the description, name or id area, the resulting text field displays as yellow but all others display as white even if I use the same style for all text fields.

The word forename does not cause this strangely enough. If I take the word surname which displays a yellow box and change that to surxxxx the box changes to white. Any ideas nice people?:confused:

Those keywords are significant in whatever interface you are using to view the text fields. If you are using DW's preview mode, they may be highlighted to show that they are important fields. They will appear various ways in various browsers. There is nothing you can do about it. Most browsers however (as far as I know) will not display them any differently than regular text fields unless they have a different style than your regular text fields.

Thanks John. You are spot on with that. I tried different browsers and got varying results. Thanks again.
