Internet explorer 8 blue colored textboxes in my PC - windows-vista

I use Firefox in daily use. While testing own web-application in Internet Explorer, I've get bug like this(as example facebook.com page):
As example I capture facebook.com website. Blue colored textboxes. This issue then I catch in other web-sites.
How to fix this problem? I haven't installed any plugin to IE and haven't customized it ever.
Is anybody catch same problem?

You've got some kind of autocomplete turned on that highlights the fields. Perhaps you didn't intentionally install any kind of package, but it managed to sneak into your computer in some other way.
If you can't get rid of the autocomplete application, then just pretend that the form fields are not blue: it doesn't show up like that for anyone else.

While using Application Modeler Not able to see Identify button after Launch in Firefox

I am using Blue Prism for gmail login test, I want to try with different Browser,I tried with IE every thing is fine but while trying with Firefox, not able to find Identify button after Launch. What would be the reason ? Is there any thing like Blue Prism doesn't support Firefox?
From what I know and what I've been taught, Blue Prism works ONLY with IE.
Blue Prism is compatible with the Internet Explorer browser only, you are advised to use IE while spying the web element, It does not support other browsers.It has the default setting of Internet Explorer, You can see this when you define the root node(brwoser+ URL path) in appln modular it shows the path with internet explorer.
Hope this helps.

Toolbar buttons stacking in tinymce on ie8

I have a problem with a tinymce editor in a Internet Explorer 8 application we build at work here. It works fine in chrome and firefox but those are the browsers developpers use. In IE8, the buttons are all stacked and i have no clue where to start with to fix the problem.
Here is the image:
PS: Please dont tell me to change browser, i can't overrule technical department for 900 users. It's sad that i'm still stuck with supporting IE8, but thats life!
Found the problem, it was the document mode. I added a meta to force document mode following this QA: Force document mode=IE8 Standards

how do i avoid showing layout in internet explorer mobile

I honesty don't know how to put this. In mango version of windows phone internet explorer shows a black semi transparent layer when a link is tapped how can I avoid this.
Well, I do clearly understand what you are telling, but unfortunately, you can't avoid that. It is simply an indication that the link has been clicked. For usability sake.
This is for existing web-pages/sites. But if you are trying to develop an web-app using PhoneGap or something else, then you can change these links as JavaScript/jQuery events instead, and that should probably avoid it.

firefox addon, transparent floating panel

I'm developing a firefox addon and would like to have a fixed position (relative to the browser) semitransparent panel with 3 icons shown at the corner of every browser content area. These buttons will have to be able to communicate with a site that is not the site shown.
I know it would be possible to inject a fixed position div to html but I want the buttons to communicate with external site when pressed and also query information when they are loaded so I think that would violate same origin policy. This wouldn't work with image or other direct media urls either.
What would be the easiest way to create the floating icon panel?
After about of week of work I found it. Here is the answer, I hope this helps someone else:

The above adds the panel, transparency is not working (at least not in linux what I work with) because of the following bug. Sigh... opened in 2007 and not closed in 2012.

edit2: I ended inserting html data to the body of the document using files from extension folder. Works very well including transparency.
