Somewhere most likely in your selected themes .XML file, where the theme design is.

/home/username/themes

If you can see the location when you highlight it (causes a colour change)... then I suspect that the theme you are using has set the font foreground colour to the same as the field's background.

How to reset that.. I don't know. But perhaps you can google/search to find how to change font folour.

there are probably other ways to do it... try this:
click on System>Preferences>Appearance
Click on the customise button (will customise the current theme)
Click on "Colours" tab
Beside "Input Boxes" and change the text colour

I just did a test, changed it to red... and all my text input boxes, including firefox location bar - text turned red. (Remember the colour code before changing in case you want to go back).

Cheers
