 |
|
[Moderator note: changed title from GTK theme affects web browser to distinguish Firefox from Chrome. -Hu]
Hello
I'm using Firefox 60 (testing on amd64), this problem was present on all versions, so this is not a version specific problem
My GTK themes are affecting my web browser's appearance (the local CSS I think, I'm not sure)
Is there a way to fix this? Is this a dependency issue? |

| Why should that be a bug? It's a feature. Of course you can customize, at least to some extent, colors, widgets, ... |

Yes Mozilla decided to theme web content form elements with the (outside) desktop theme if the website's css does not define background color or background image. Which is problematic for example with dark themes: If the website is light, and the css defines font color=black for a button, but does not define any background, you get a nice black button with black font.
From firefox 57 on, you can override the GTK theme in about:config: String "widget.content.gtk-theme-override" (you may have to create it). Set it to "Adwaita" or try different themes you have installed.
