Preventing Unwanted background colouring of textboxes by google toolbar

You might have noticed the annoying yellow colour in the background of some text boxes in your webforms when they are seen in a browser with google toolbar enabled.
I had this problem and spent a lot of time in finding a solution for it.
It is possible to disable it from the settings menu of google tool bar, at the client side only. ie; every client browsing your page has to disable the background colouring from the settings menu of google tool bar. So that is obviously not the solution.

If you want to strictly avoid such change in style settings, you can simply add '!important' to the style sheet and can get rid of the problem very easily.

Now your code for a textbox will look something like,

<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" Style="z-index: 100; left: 160px; position: absolute; top: 135px; background-color: #ffffff!important"></asp:TextBox>

The stylesheet rule here is '!important'. So it will not be overridden by google tool bar any more.

if you have any doubts on this please mail to me

Thanks
