Bug Description

On HTTPS pages, the location bar becomes black, which makes it quite ugly and less readable.

I am using Xfce with the Greybird theme.

I'm running 64-bit Linux download of SeaMonkey 12.3.1. I just upgraded to Kubuntu 12.10 from 12.04 (it went very smoothly!) and suddenly https sites have black location bars just like the screenshot! I've never seen this before in 5 years of running Kubuntu and SeaMonkey. chromium and konqueror don't do this. Weird. Happens in a brand new profile as well.

Fixed it for myself by adding this to my userChrome.css:

.urlbar-security-level[level="high"] {
 background-color: #dfa !important;
 color: #000 !important;
}

The location bar has a css setting which renders to black (which is ok for itself, the problem is using this):

background-color: infobackground;
