Hello, whenever I highlight in netscape, so as to copy text, it is difficult to see the highlight, as it is a shade of pink that is so light, that it is basically white. Anyway to fix this?

Add Netscape*selectBackground: #000000 Netscape*selectForeground: #FFFFFF to your ~/.Xdefaults, and do a `xrdb -merge ~/.Xdefaults'. Of course this won't look to nice if you are viewing a homepage with black background and white foreground.

Hello, the #000000 and #FFFFFF did help. On white backgrounds, the highlight is black. Unfortunately, when I go to to the search engine webcrawler, I get a big black box in the middle of the screen, and no way to enter my search string. Is there anyother way fixing the highlight problem? Also, there are no settings for changing the color of highlight in Netscape. I got some messages saying look in preferences. I did. It's not there.

I'd try different colors then #000000 (black) and #FFFFFF (white). Maybe that helps.
Also, there are no settings for changing the color of highlight in Netscape. I got some messages saying look in preferences. I did. It's not there.
Yep. There is no such setting in Netscapes preferences. Ciao, Stefan -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
I prefer Netscape*selectBackground: #0000FF Netscape*selectForeground: #FFFF00 which uses yellow characters on blue background. Works great on both white and black screens. Avi George Zeigler wrote:
