Found it - replace this:

code:

---

<td><strong><input type=tbox id=frmMessage size=80></strong></td>

---

with something like this:

code:

---

<td><strong><input type=tbox id=frmMessage size=80 style="background-color:#008080"></strong></td>

---

or this ...

code:

---

<td><strong><input type=tbox id=frmMessage size=80 style="background-color: rgb(255,0,0)"></strong></td>

---
