Text not legible in text area

Dear Jason,

I created a simple contact form with CSS Form Builder using the 'sharp' design - see attached zip.

I made one change to the form in CSS Form Builder before it was processed, and that was to make the 'comments text area field' a 'required' field.

This has had a strange effect. Firstly if a user just hits the submit button, all the validation tooltips appear (expected). However, the comments box has taken on a red colour, the other text boxes are a 'salmon pink' colour. That's not too bad, but the main problem - after you hit the submit button and it contains no comment - is you cannot see the text when you do go to type text in the comments box. You only see the text when you click out of the box - so the user doesn't realise that he is typing anything and this obviously would cause the user problems.
