Changing background and text doesn't change category text
 

Hello all,

I've just begun getting familar with the css skin1 editing process.

I want to change the background of my entire cart to black with white text. I've gotten that to work by changing this code:

BODY,P,DIV,TH,TD,P,INPUT,SELECT,TEXTAREA {
FONT-FAMILY: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, Sans-serif;
COLOR: #000000; FONT-SIZE: 10px;

and this:

BODY {
MARGIN-TOP: 0 px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0 px; MARGIN-LEFT: 0 px; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0 px;
BACKGROUND-COLOR: #9E9FA7;

to reflect what I want.

The problem is that the category font color doesn't change with the others and ends up being invisible. I'm using "fancy categories" and I'm wondering if that's part of the problem.

Also, how do I change all the other text to white (i.e. at the top of the main page, the product descriptions, etc.)?

Thanks in advance,

Joel

Open up the site in webmaster mode, see which templates are controlling the display. Dialog.tpl contains many of the variables you are looking for. (dialogtitle, dialogbox, etc). Fancy categories has its own set of styles, but that only affects the menu itself, not the category names on the page.

Thanks for the great advice - once again!

Any ideas on how I can change the background for things like products headings, featured products, etc? I've gotten everything else changed via CSS but I can't find that setting anywhere.

You can see what I mean by choosing any product:

There is a default orange that I can't get rid of.

Again, dialog.tpl. You will see a background image set in the table cell that contains the title.

Perfect - Thank you sir!
