Removing input background colour for Chrome autocomplete?

Question

On a form I\'m working on, Chrome is auto-filling the email and password fields. This is fine, however, Chrome changes the background colour to a pale yellow colour.

Answer 1

This has been as designed since this coloring behavior has been from WebKit. It allows the user to understand the data has been prefilled. Bug 1334

You could turn off autocomplete by doing (or on the specific form control:

...

Or you can change the colour of the autofill by doing:

input:-webkit-autofill {
    color: #2a2a2a !important;
}

Note, there is a bug being tracked for this to work again: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=46543

This is a WebKit behavior.
