@geno, this seems to happen if you have the theme variable set to white - same for the input fields in the another thread the input fields can be configured via the style tab to have what ever color text you'd like. As for the alerts and dropdown there is currently no way to change the text color, which there absolutely should be! So thanks for this, I'll move this forward.

When I build to "web" or when I use appgyver app on the map for testing, in both cases, fonts in alerts or drops downs or even in title fields are white on white. In the case of a drop down, if you mouse over the control, as you move up and down, when the item in the list is selected, you can see the text.
