I would have to look, but I think the SAP supplied code libary and/or script attached/embeded in the ISR DropDown control handles this. I am not sure you can override this behavior. However, if you find a way, here is a nice article that explains HOW to do what you want to do using Javascript on the control:

Here is a clever way another developer overrides/replaces the Adobe standard behavior.....

Oh ! And also....it might be something as simple as your own settings in your Reader....

You simply set the "fill color" for the text field. This can be confusing as the "Text Edit" has 2 pieces it considers. This is explained better here....

http://forms.stefcameron.com/2008/03/14/field-background-color-fill/

....so for the WHOLE control, set the fill on the "layout" tab. But for just the "input" portion of the control, set the "fill" under the "Appearance->Custom" dropdown on the "object" tab itself.

Hope this helps.
