Cannot see what I am typing in text boxes

Hi, the colours are showing up oddly on my browser. I am not even sure how to describe it, but I will do my best.

1) Whenever I click on textboxes and start typing, I can't actually see what I am typing unless I highlight the text or click outside of the textbox. While I am typing, the contents within the textbox becomes white on white.

2) The bigger textboxes on the browser also almost always turn green when I am typing in them, which is quite annoying. I get white text on a green background within the textbox, and the green only disappears when I click outside of the textbox, whereupon I get the usual black text on a white box back.

I have attached screenshots that I hope show what I mean. I do not have this problem in other browsers or on other computers. Appreciate any help.
