Guest Posted August 16, 2010 Posted August 16, 2010 Hey All, When I click on the catagory and go to the list of products none of the names show up until I mouse over them. This has become a problem as customers don't know of this function and are clueless. I had as customer try and get his password and because the text forgot password click her is invisable he had no idea how to retreive it. He emaild me and i had to do it for him. Please help as I have searched the forum for a long time and can't find any info on the subject. I would like to turn this feature off if i knew how. I can't believe no one else has had this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance Dappa Dan
germ Posted August 16, 2010 Posted August 16, 2010 Sounds like you need to change the anchor attributes in the stylesheet or the table background color. Without the URL I can't be any more specific. If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

Guest Posted August 19, 2010 Posted August 19, 2010 Dan, In your stylesheet.css look for this: .boxText { background:url("images/infoboxcontentsbg.jpg") repeat scroll 0 0 transparent; color:#F0F0F0; font-family:Verdana,Arial,sans-serif; font-size:10px; change the color to something else. Chris

Chris That will get you nowhere because what you want to change are anchors. That doesn't affect the anchors. Try these changes in the stylesheet. Old code: A { color: #f0f0f0; text-decoration: none; } #menu2 li a:link, #menu2 li a:visited { color: #fff; display: block; background: url(images/menu2.gif); padding: 8px 0 0 10px; } New code: A { color: #000000; text-decoration: none; } #menu2 li a:link, #menu2 li a:visited { color: #000000; display: block; background: url(images/menu2.gif); padding: 8px 0 0 10px; } That changes the anchors to black. This is the simplest change to make the text visible. Sometimes after changing the stylesheet in order to see any change you have to hold the <Ctrl> key down while doing a page refresh in the browser to force the browser to reload all contents from the server, including the newly changed stylesheet. This works with IE and Firefox. If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

There was a hover button and all I did was remove the word hover and the text showed its self. thanks a million! Dappa Dan
germ Posted August 21, 2010 Posted August 21, 2010 Glad you have the problem sorted. However, my own personal opinion of the link color on the page in qustion is that it leaves a lot to be desired. For me it's very hard to read. There isn't enough contrast between the text color and the background IMHO. If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.
