As it turns out my background color must of been too close to the cursor color for IE to render correctly so they bled together. After I changed the background color a little, it solved the issue.</p> <p>Thanks much for your help. That theme is an old free theme I got long ago and I need to validate it at some point. There are alot of errors. I might just start over with it. </p> <p>Anyway...love Gravity Forms. Thanks for the help.</p> <p>Bryan </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/cursor-doesnt-blink-in-text-fields-on-internet-explorer#post-120909 Sun, 13 Jan 2013 14:15:04 +0000 Chris Hajer 120909@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>If it works properly in the form preview, I would validate the XHTML on the page:<br /> <a href="http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.howellfarmlodging.com%2F&amp;charset=%28detect+automatically%29&amp;doctype=Inline&amp;group=0" rel="nofollow">http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.howellfarmlodging.com%2F&amp;charset=%28detect+automatically%29&amp;doctype=Inline&amp;group=0</a></p> <p>Invalid HTML can cause focus problems like this. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/cursor-doesnt-blink-in-text-fields-on-internet-explorer#post-120908 Sun, 13 Jan 2013 14:13:54 +0000 Chris Hajer 120908@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>The cursor actually appears to go behind the input field (IE 9 on Windows 7). Try entering the field from above or below and watch how the cursor disappears. Does the cursor disappear in IE on Windows when you view the form in the form preview? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/cursor-doesnt-blink-in-text-fields-on-internet-explorer#post-120901 Sun, 13 Jan 2013 14:05:16 +0000 Chris Hajer 120901@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Sorry, I updated my topic.
