jacenstuff Posted September 26, 2006 Posted September 26, 2006 Hello, Ok, I may be crazy... but I'm not stupid. I know my way around this silly stylesheet, at least most of it. I'm doign this fall halloween theme for ym site by hand, making my own icons and so forth. However, being my scheme is black,brown,orange and beige, as opposed to my typical baby blue and white, i gotta get rid of the standard colors. All was well and good and I'm almost complete, except for TWO little things. There is this trim aroudn my tables, which should be noted in CSS as border-color, and I can't seem to change it from the babyblue color to the dark brown as I want. It's one ALL tables borders, regardless or calss specified from what ic an see. I've been checking the sources of each page looking for hints, I see classes like "main", "infobox", "infoboxcontents"... but border colors were not even listed, I added a border-color attribute to try and change it, but met with no success. The second issue, which must be really easy for you guys is the link color. I know this is listed under " A{}" but, when I go to put in a new color... nothing changed. So my two stylesheet issues are: 1. Can't change the color of the babyblue trim around my tables to the darkbrown I want 2. Can't seem to change the color of my links, despite editing the color under A{} The site I'm working on is http:www.dweebweaver.com if you guys want to see what i'mt laking about. I jsut want to get rid of the default blue links and the babyblue trim around the boxes and swap in some new colors. I know someone must've done this before. Thanks so much in advance. We must be the change we wish to see in the world. ------------------------------------------------------------ p.s. BACKUP!

Not sure about the links, but the infobox border is in stylesheet.css , you need to find: .infoBox { background: #000000; } Then change the colour to whatever you need it to be.
jacenstuff Posted September 28, 2006 Author Posted September 28, 2006 AH-HA! How could I overlook such a foolish thing. .infobox doesn't have border properties! it's background color IS the border. This worked and solved the mystery that kept me from sleeping. crap...does this mean i'm an addict if I lose sleep on such a thing? Still haven't resolved the links issue, but i can do without.
