Changing the background color of the category box *only*

[Puckle]

Hello,

 

I was wondering if anyone could tell me what I should do to change the categories and languages boxes background color, without changing the boxes on the rest of the site.

 

 

I don't mind if all the other boxes in the columns are changed as well, because I commented them all out, except for those two. However, I don't want any of the boxes in the main area to change color, I want them white.

 

 

I've tried everything in the stylesheet, but if I change .infoBox, they all change...... and when I add background color to TABLE.productListing it ignores it.

 

Here's a link: chaperon

 

 

I want the sidebar boxes (categories and languages) to stay that color. But I want all the other boxes to be white.

 

 

I'd really appreciate any help!

You need to do the following:

1. Create a new class in your stylesheet such as newinfoboxstyle.
   The css will look something like this (add your own to what you need):
   

   .newinfoboxstyleContents {
   background: transparent;
   color: white;
   }

   
   

2. Copy the "class infobox" code from includes/classes/boxes.php. This code begins with

   class infobox extends tableBox {

   
   and ends wiith

   return $this->tablebox($info_box_contents); } }

   
   

3. Paste the above code in the same file but replace all instances of "infobox" to "newinfoboxstyle"
   
4. Now open your includes/boxes/categories.php file and change the class references from infobox to newinfoboxstyle
   

Hope this helps,
