The table of the input form has a white background. This patch makes it transparent.

Would it not be better to remove the stupid CSS rule that's causing this for all forms, or to add a specific selector so that the background colours are inherited as expected?
The rule is unnecessary in the default skin, since the background there is also white. WONTFIX. Ask someone to recolor the backgrounds of tables in their custom styles, where they've recolored the page background. (In reply to comment #2) > Would it not be better to remove the stupid CSS rule that's causing this for all > forms We tried it, it was ugly (try floating a table with a transparent background: rules from headings and whatnot will be visible through it). Besides, it's the fault of whoever made all these broken skins that don't recolor table backgrounds for non-main space. > or to add a specific selector so that the background colours are > inherited as expected? As I recall, IE6 doesn't support inherit for background-color. But even if it did, that breaks as soon as you put your table in a div, since then it inherits the transparent background. You'd have to do * { background-color: inherit; }, which will probably break stuff horribly (e.g., overwriting background images).
