Konqueror: User-defined stylesheet

I've been trying to use the "User-defined stylesheet" in Konqueror with no luck. Mainly, some of the sites that I visit don't define both "color" and "background-color" in their style sheets. Normally they define one, but not both. My color scheme on my system is a black background and white text, so now and then I can't see what I'm entering in a INPUT or TEXTAREA input tag one these "broken" sites.

What I want to do is over-ride their style with my style. For example, on this site the style is ...

[code:1]
input { font-family: Verdana,Arial; font-size: 9pt; color: 000000; }
textarea { font-family: Verdana,Arial; font-size: 9pt; color: 000000; }
select { font-family: Verdana,Arial; font-size: 7pt; color: 000000; }
[/code:1]

So I've created a "mystyle.css" file in my home directory with the following styles ....

[code:1]
input { font-family: Verdana,Arial; font-size: 9pt; background-color: #000000; color: #FFFFFF; }
textarea { font-family: Verdana,Arial; font-size: 9pt; background-color: #000000; color: #FFFFFF; }
select { font-family: Verdana,Arial; font-size: 7pt; background-color: #000000; color: #FFFFFF; }
[/code:1]

I then select "User-defined stylesheet" in Konqueror's configure menu and select my stylesheet. However it doesn't work. I still get a black text in a black INPUT tag.

Does it matter if the page's style sheets are inline or externally linked? The site above uses inline.

Any thoughts?
