For those that run linux and want to update their Firefox icon so it automatically launches with GTK_THEME="Adwaita:light" firefox %u instead (band-aid work around that shouldn't need to be). $ cp /usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop ~/.local/share/applications $ gedit ~/.local/share/applications/firefox.desktop Change the "Exec=" line to read: Exec=bash -c "GTK_THEME=\"Adwaita:light\" firefox %u &" Save and Exit.

So I think it would be useful to know, for the current round of complaints, are the problems the result of: 1. Firefox incorrectly gets data out of the GTK theme, so that its default appearance for controls doesn't match the native one, or 2. Firefox gets the data out of the theme correctly, but then web pages override one but not both of color and background (while assuming that color is dark and background is light), leading to an unreadable result We've had both problems in the past, and it would be useful to know which of them is happening in the set of problems that have spiked in the past few months. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/220263 Title: Bad Firefox integration with dark themes Status in Mozilla Firefox: Fix Released Status in XULRunner: Confirmed Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I'm using Mozilla Firefox 3 Beta 5 on Ubuntu 8.04 with a dark theme.

I hit this bug today by choosing the dark Adwaita theme in Gnome 3.28 and Firefox 65.0. It's amazing that this is an 18 year old bug. I found it surprising the system theme did anything to webpages and had two consecutive surprises: - First setting the system theme to Adwaita-dark changed the Firefox theme. That makes sense. What was surprising was that the Firefox theme then changed the content of the web pages. My mental model of a browser is that within the page view it's a different world and there's no reason for the web to look different to match the browser chrome or the system theme. - Because I didn't actually like the dark version of Firefox I switched it to the Light theme manually (webpages are usually light colored and so dark chrome in browsers looks weird). And yet even after doing this pages still had dark buttons and input areas. That was even stranger. Now Firefox had a light theme and yet the webpages were still picking up broken colors from the system theme inconsistent with the Firefox chrome theme. I fixed this after some web searches by setting "widget.content.gtk- theme-override:Adwaita". That at least sets a light theme for UI controls and is back to looking reasonable. I found that in bug #1283086 which seems to be a 3 year old duplicate of this 18 year old bug. The proposal for removal of all native theming in #1411425 makes perfect sense. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/220263 Title: Bad Firefox integration with dark themes Status in Mozilla Firefox: Fix Released Status in XULRunner: Confirmed Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I'm using Mozilla Firefox 3 Beta 5 on Ubuntu 8.04 with a dark theme.

(possible way to solve this issue?) Sir, One option might be to remove all dependency on system themes. Firefox shouldn't care about the system themes. No dependence. All text should be rendered: 1. like the .css developer wanted or, 2. if he uses !important, render it simply black on white. In a nutshell, default FF canvas(for everything, including input boxes) and font should be white and black respectively. We shouldn't inherit this from the system theme. Why should we? Do we really need to? Hope this would nullify @dbaron sir's requirements and make it easier to implement this, sooner. Thank You [Please do not ban me if this does not help.

Evan, what that patch will not do is fix the input field issue on
explicitly chosen dark themes. What I would recommend instead is simply
making this bit of userContent.css equivalent completely override Gtk
regardless of theme, to produce the desired output:
INPUT, TEXTAREA {color: black ; background: #ff ; }
This is the general case which websites expect, and which users expect,
and in my testing does not interfere with sites that explicitly set up a
different color combination for text input areas. I don't even think
it's -possible- to recreate this bug on the Windows or Mac ports without
manually messing with userContent.css, so forcibly overriding Gtk here
seems like the intelligent thing to do.

(In reply to David Baron :dbaron: ⌚UTC+2 from comment #45) > The number of comments recently makes me suspect that something got *worse* > recently. Yes, something did change in GNOME recently. Prior to GNOME 3.28 there was a GTK preference called gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme that could be used to get dark widgets. This could either be set in ~/.config /gnome-terminal/gtk-3.0/settings.ini. This was also exposed as a toggle option in the gnome-tweaks tool, which is probably how most users had set it it. This GTK option has been deprecated in GNOME 3.28, and the new way to get a dark theme is to explicitly set one's GTK theme to Adwaita dark. You can read about this a bit more at [1] and [2]. Firefox apparently has some logic to ignore gtk-application-prefer-dark- theme, but that logic no longer works on GNOME 3.28 with the Adwaita dark theme. As was mentioned in comment #43, the work around for GNOME 3.28 is to set a user pref (i.e. in about:config or user.js) that sets widget.content.gtk-theme-override to Adwaita:light. As I suspect the overwhelming majority of Firefox users with dark GTK themes are using Adwaita dark (which is bundled with GNOME), I would suggest updating the Firefox dark them detection logic to handle the new case with the Adwait theme names hard coded. This is hacky, but probably mitigates the issue for most users.

I suspect that many aspects of this actually were fixed at various times. But the hard part is to prevent all the CSS changes in the browser front-end from triggering some aspect of it again. (At one point I think I'd made a testing mode in which the correct foreground/background pairs were always the same color, so that no text should be visible, that could be used to check that colors were matched correctly. I'm not sure if I even landed the code for it or what happened to it since.) I'd also done some work to document what those pairs were, i.e., the rules for which native-theme-derived foreground color should be matched with which background color so that themes work correctly. (-moz-appearance makes this a bit more complicated, since foreground colors could be matched with a -moz-appearance background as well.) The number of comments recently makes me suspect that something got *worse* recently. In theory fixing this probably requires: * documenting what the valid foreground-color and (background-color or -moz-appearance) pairs are for use of colors from native themes * developing a mechanism to check that the UI uses only those pairs together and nothing else (probably by making each pair render the same (bright) color as a diagnostic * auditing the Firefox UI * checking that the things we're extracting from GTK themes make sense with the rules that we're applying -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/220263 Title: Bad Firefox integration with dark themes Status in Mozilla Firefox: Fix Released Status in XULRunner: Confirmed Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I'm using Mozilla Firefox 3 Beta 5 on Ubuntu 8.04 with a dark theme.

Just want to confirm that this bug is still NOT fixed. I use KDE Plasma desktop enviroment with Breeze Dark color scheme. Usually I use Chromium, sometimes Google Chrome, as they don't have issues with dark themes. But I want to use Firefox and because of this bug I can't. I was following Firefox releases past 4-5 years expecting to see a fix for this. Now I use "Text Contrast for Dark Themes" extension which kind of helps, but not enough for daily use. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/text-contrast-for-dark-themes/ It's sad to see that this bug already 17 years old and does not get enough attention to get fixed. As dark themes for GTK+ getting more popular, I hope to see a fix in future. Could be set as a milestone for 2020 or something, that would be really great! No other browser has this issue, only Firefox. If this is super hard to fix, maybe would be good idea to switch to another toolkit instead of GTK+? For example Qt toolkit is very good, has a lot of support and works pretty well. OFFTOPIC: One thing made me happy with recent Firefox releases, that HighDPi display support is improved, and it's possible to get non- integer value scaling of UI and websites. For that I was waiting 2 years and I am really happy it got improved.

I wholly agree with Storm's assessment. As a programmer, a web developer, and a UI designer, the fact that Firefox has sat on this bug for over a decade is shameful, especially since it has been *patched* with extensions before. For anyone affected, install the "Text Contrast for Dark Themes" (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/text-contrast-for-dark- themes/?src=api) extension. I've been using it for the past few weeks, and it resolves 98% of the problems related to this bug. The fact that extension exists should NOT be taken as an excuse for Firefox not to fix this.

Dear Rimas Kudelis, Let me answer each of your points. I'll leave point 1; to the last > 2. Content colors are user-managed, and default to black-on-white: > https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/change-fonts-and-colors-websites- > use#w_change-font-color. FALSE. Those colors have _nothing_ to do with default colors. They are override colors, that, when apply, override websites' CSS as well. By default they only apply with HighContrast theme, and no, "use system colors" is NOT enabled on my FF. I just set those colors to bright red and neon green - guess what? Writing a review on addons.mozilla.org is _still_ light gray on white. And that light gray is my system color, which shouldn't apply, yet it does. Ever since I use Firefox with a dark theme (about 10+ years) this was broken. And currently there is no any way I know of, or that I could find via hours of Googling, to change the default colors Firefox falls back to if no color is specified. > 3. On the other hand, form fields have always inherited the system-wide look > by default. And they shouldn't. Appearance, sure, but NOT colors. Colors of the host system should not, ever, under any circumstance affect the colors displayed in webpages, since webpages' look is independent of the host system. > 3. Illegible text, whether in form fields or elsewhere, is pretty much > ALWAYS the designer's (or rather person's who did the CSS work) fault. I disagree partly. It is their fault that they didn't specify colors, and relying on the assumption that if no color is specified then background will be white and text will be black. But it is not their fault, that this assumption is true in every single browser, except Firefox with dark theme. It is also not their fault, that Firefox, instead of implementing these common expectations as default, lets system colors bleed into webpages. And since we know that many-many webdesigners will be lazy, why not save our users from all that pain by implementing sane defaults? Also, it's funny how parts of mozilla.org are affected by this issue. > Back in the day, people used to validate their CSS And in a perfect world they would still do it, but we are not living in a perfect world sadly, so we may as well account for that instead of sticking heads into the sand. > Nowadays, everyone just blindly assumes that stuff will > work after minimum testing on Chrome If they don't have a dark system theme, it will work for them in every single browser in existence. Only Firefox, combined with dark system theme does break it. So back to 1; I'm desperate. I started using Firefox about 15 years ago because it was the best, and_most_customizable_ browser out there. It had its flaws, but we loved it regardless. I had high hopes for Quantum, but instead it was a gigantic let down. - It killed off several amazing Addons, that are impossible to port to WebExtension because it's extremely limited. - Addon devs' feature requests for functionality allowing said mods to be ported were simply closed with "WONTFIX". - Even more customization was removed, partly by making it impossible for Addons to customize FF now (eg. Classic Theme Restorer with millions of users), turning firefox into the _least_customizable_ browser on the market. - The dark theme issue became MUCH worse. Until Quantum, I used a simple local CSS that was an effective workaround for 99% of websites. Now the system colors bleed into even more places, that I could only fix by overriding colors that then break other pages that were fine without it, plus local CSS is now unable to affect the Firefox GUI itself, making it impossible to fix this issue in the GUI. Firefox is still better IMHO than all other browsers in many regard, but with every day I have to suffer with unreadable websites I feel more and more tempted to just go to Chrome.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 220263]
The fact that Firefox cannot handle dark desktop themes was reported many times FOR SEVENTEEN YEARS. Seventeen years. And still an issue. Webpages display partly in system colors causing white on white or black on black text/form elements, while parts of the Firefox UI defy every dark theme and stay eye-bruning white. I hoped that finally Quantum will fix this... but it MADE IT WORSE! Now several parts of the FF GUI have white on white checkboxes or disabled text, and everything in settings is blazing white as well as new tab page. All you need to do to fix the websites is to use the widespread defaults instead of system colors to render webpages. color:black; background-color:white; DONE. But you can't do this for 17 years for reasons beyond comprehension. WORKS in Chrome (USES GTK TOO!)

To clarify, instead of Firefox trying to make an informed decision based on the system/GTK theme, can Firefox just default to the colours specified in the Content tab in Colors and pretend that GTK doesn't exist? (only in the viewport) the only alternative to this problem is to install extensions that allow the user to override page themes but that is ultimately messy and can also break things in unexpected ways. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/220263 Title: Bad Firefox integration with dark themes Status in Mozilla Firefox: Fix Released Status in XULRunner: Confirmed Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I'm using Mozilla Firefox 3 Beta 5 on Ubuntu 8.04 with a dark theme.

Dear Storm, 1. Putting same heated rant in multiple bugs is one good way to achieve two things: a) earn a ban from commenting on this Bugzilla, and b) decrease the likelihood of these bugs being fixed by blurring their scope. I mean, it's surely the easy thing to do, whereas a much more constructive and useful thing would be to figure out which of these issues are duplicates of each other, or have lost focus over time, and propose merging or closing them. For example, this bug seems to have become a catch-all for anything dark_theme-related, and IMO is as good as closed by now anyways, whereas bug 119538 is actually about Firefox for Android, which is a separate product, has nothing to do with GTK, and is irrelevant in any discussion where particular issues on GTK, Windows or Mac are involved. Similarly, bug 1425517 is about Calendar (built-in Thunderbird extension), and as such has very little relevance to Firefox. Another good thing to do would be to file new bugs if you stumble upon issues which aren't on the record yet. The narrower the issue, the more chance you have of it being taken seriously and fixed. You know, because fixing "OMG NOTHING WORKS YOU ALL SUCK" is kinda more difficult than fixing "Checkboxes in this particular dialog are illegible when using dark theme, here's a screenshot and more info". Oh, and of course, you could have proposed a patch instead of complaining. 2. Content colors are user-managed, and default to black-on-white: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/change-fonts-and-colors-websites- use#w_change-font-color. The option to "Use system colors" is NOT checked by default, and it has always been this way. 3. On the other hand, form fields have always inherited the system-wide look by default. Mozilla even has it documented: https://developer.mozilla.org/en- US/docs/Learn/HTML/Forms/Styling_HTML_forms. 3. Illegible text, whether in form fields or elsewhere, is pretty much ALWAYS the designer's (or rather person's who did the CSS work) fault. It's a rule of thumb that if you're specifying background color, you should also specify text color, and vice-versa. Back in the day, people used to validate their CSS, and specifying just one of those colors would trigger a warning in the validator. Nowadays, everyone just blindly assumes that stuff will work after minimum testing on Chrome, and then blames whatever doesn't work in the other browser on that other browser. Now, aside from all that, I suppose a desire to use back-on-white on form widgets by default (so long as "use system colors" is unchecked) could be a valid feature request. I doubt this would be easy to implement though, especially assuming that some people might prefer native look. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/220263 Title: Bad Firefox integration with dark themes Status in Mozilla Firefox: Fix Released Status in XULRunner: Confirmed Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I'm using Mozilla Firefox 3 Beta 5 on Ubuntu 8.04 with a dark theme.

I too am also affected by this (seemingly old) bug, on an Ubuntu Gnome 15.04 using the built-in dark theme. Some text boxes result in using white text on a white background, since Firefox uses a mixture of the webpage CSS and that from the GNOME theme.

As Dario said, it doesn't make sense to use the GTK theme on web pages. In addition to this, there is *already* a setting for not using the system colours: Edit > Preferences > Colors > Use system colors I believe it is off by default and obviously should prevent the system colour scheme from determining form field background colours, but it doesn't.

I'm using Firefox 46.0+build5 on Ubuntu 16.04 and this bug just hit me after many years of using the global dark theme (Adwaita + Humanity Dark icons). If I turn off the "Global Dark Theme" in Gnome tweak tool, everything is back to normal in Firefox. It seems to me that the bug is somewhere in /usr/share/themes/Adwaita/gtk-2.0/gtkrc. Essentially, going to pages like this https://net- ssh.github.io/scp/v1/api/classes/Net/SCP.html is completely unreadable. If I highlight the invisible text, I'm able to see there is something there whose color matches the background color!
