   I'm having trouble with the comment boxes on my site.

   First, it seems that every other comment posted is white.
   I know this was just something that was done in the original template, but I've tried changing the code this way and that, and I'm missing something.

   Second, I changed the image file for the submit button, but it seems that there's a text overlay. I don't see this in the code anywhere either.

   I built this whole site with no help, but this is beyond me. Thanks!

   Please view the problem here:

   this:
   

   .alt
   {
   	margin-top: 10px;
   	padding: 10px;
           background: #fefefe;
   	font: 11px Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
   	width: 450px;
   	border: 1px dotted #d32e24;
   }

   is defining the 'white' comment.

   if you delete this whole style, all comments should be displayed the same; or just change some styles in the above.

   your submit button underlying the text comes from this 'Submit Comment' in this line (from comments.php (?))
   

   <p><input name="submit" type="submit" id="submit" tabindex="5" value="Submit Comment" />

   if you remove this text, you need to add a width to your #submit style in style.css (and probably adjust the height)
   (only the changes shown below)

   #commentform #submit {
   height: 23px;
   width:77px; }
