Can't view entry in HTML form

    I have added a HTML form to a footer widget that collects email addresses. I am unable to see the text I am typing into the form in the Firefox browser (35.0.1). I made the input field required and when I enter an invalid email address the error message page shows the text I typed but I can’t see it as I enter it into the form.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    The site is askdrkyle.com and the form is on the left hand side of the footer.

    Thanks!

    I see the text, but it’s very light grey on white, so it’s almost invisible. I suggest you add this to your CSS file:

    .footer-widgets input[type="text"] {
    color:#666;
}

    Good suggestion Mark. I changed it to #000 but I am still unable to view the text as I type. It’s almost as if there is an element blocking it or something but I’m not sure how that would be possible…

    I resolved the issue. I had adjusted the height of the input element and the padding was keeping me from being able to see the text input into the field.

    Thanks for your help Mark!
