At a glance your css looks fine except you should get rid of this empty rule, or supply a value for it:
Code:
BODY {
MARGIN-TOP: 0 px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0 px; MARGIN-LEFT: 0 px; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0 px;
background: url(images/backgr.gif); background-repeat: ;
}
As for finding which rule applies to the minicart total, open up minicart.tpl and look for this:
Code:
<td class="VertMenuItems"><b>{$lng.lbl_total}: </b></td>
<td class="VertMenuItems">{include file="currency.tpl" value=$minicart_total_cost}</td>
The code above is unmodified from 4.1.6. Check that your code is the same, or if you've modified it, check which class is given to
and
Code:
{include file="currency.tpl" value=$minicart_total_cost}
. Once you have the class name you can look it up in your css.
If you still can't find it, just add a class (with a name of your choice) to the two <td>s shown above in minicart.tpl Then add a rule for that class, with your text colour choice, to your css.
If this doesn't work and you've modified minicart.tpl, check that no colour rules are written into the html, as these will override rules set in your stylesheet.
