Changing just one colour is a *really bad thing to do*.  For example
you'll find that scrollbars (frames & textareas) are still black.

As I said in the "Options/Choices refactor" thread, the recommended fix is
to delete old Choices files, as doing this has other benefits.

Also, NetSurf has just been fixed to reset all colour values to their
defaults if they are all black.  If you just change one colour, it won't
be able to detect this problem and reset them for you.


BTW, you can see the colours (and all the other current settings) by
visiting about:config in NetSurf.  It also indicates whether you are using
a default setting, or if you have modified a Choices value.

I find that a bit hard on my eyes, so use dd instead (Very light grey).

As someone also getting the same problem, I did just that, and thereafter
it was okay.

However, I'm using two versions of NetSurf, the latest and an older
version, when I re-use the older version, then later go to the latest
version the Hotlist is back to Black.

It's a hexadecimal value meaning white (in this context).

That worked although I have no idea quite what the arcane 6 fs actually do.
Hotlist window now has black text on a white ground. 
Wasn't the background blue or grey at one time? 
Oh well. 50 shades of grey will do.

Many thanks,

Have you tried deleting your Choices file, as per suggestions in
other threads?
