It appears you are right Alex, I went to another page and sure enough, no go.

Cheers.

In truth I have to revisit the page and check this out. What I did was to use custom highlight assign. To do this first go to a page and move to combo box any way you want and then: 1. Press insert f2, and arrow down to and enter on custom highlight assign. 2. In this case I'd suggest going with defaults, I chose use both fore and background colors. 3. From here it gets kind of fuzzy, internet explorer.jcf file came up, I think I chose black on white radio button and tabbed down to ok and pushed spacebar. I then saved the new changes and hit alt f4. It appears to work but it may not when I go to the page again.
