Hey,

I have a strange issue on one PC with IE7 installed:

when the user selects a block of text, the background colour is the same as the text colour (black) -> the block is unreadable...

This only happens in IE, not in MS Word etc...

Any ideas?

Check under Tools -> internet Options -> Accessibility that all boxes are unchecked.

Check under Tools -> internet Options -> Colors (sic) that only 'use Windows colors (sic)' is checked.

Check in the control panel that no 'high contrast' or other customisations to colours have been set. This will depend on whether you are using Vista or XP.

Hope this helps,
Dan
