Typed input on log ins, search commands are barely visible - not crisp black print. How do I fix?

Question

I have a Windows 7 HP desk top - rather new and functioning well. My email is free from AOL - Internet connection is AT&T. In logging on to the email account it is the typical user name/password process. When I now click on email log in or other log ins - the log in data entry space caret is barely visible and the typing I enter is barely visible, but when the entry data is correct my log in is accepted. And in all my Bookmarks only the icons are visible until I rest my mouse pointer on the icon. Some time (don't know how much time) before I noticed the problem I was browsing through the display and personalization sections under the control panel. I made no lasting display changes but did review some alternative before deciding not to change anything. Perhaps it is a simple change in the font color that needs attention - but I haven't been able to figure out how to do that in what I see in the Firefox Tool Bars .

Answer 1

First thing...you made a mistake
import javax.swing.JScrollPane;
import javax.swing.JScrollBar;
import javax.swing.*;When you import javax.swing.*; You automatically
import JScrollPane & JScrollBar class, there's no
need for you to re import again...
That is not always a mistake. There are cases where it makes sense to do both (i.e., to import both '*' and a specific class name from that package at the same time). I believe the common example is:
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.util.List;Now you can use "List" as a short name for "java.util.List", but must use "java.awt.List" in full for "java.awt.List" objects. If you just did:
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.*;Then you couldn't use List as a short name for anything--because it is ambiguous. You'd have to use both "java.awt.List" and "java.util.List" spelled out in full.
Or, if you did:
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.awt.List; // NOTE CHANGEThen "List" is short for "java.awt.List", and you must use "java.util.List" in full for "java.awt.List" objects.
