Hi,

Can someone explain this one to me.

I have been trying to change the colours of text in my shop.

I go to the shop front (shop is closed) so I use key - the colours are almost as I wanted them I just need to make the side menu titles White instead of black.
I go to admin - the colours here are the colours I wanted in the shop (OK so I must have changed the admin css file sometime) anyway - into webmaster mode - all colours in admin go green ( I think that is supposed to happen)

I open customer area in new window - (all colours are green).

I find my way to skin1.css 'vertmenutitle change colour to #ffffff (white). Go back to shopfront still in webmaster mode - green text everywhere - refresh - still green.
So I open fresh browser go to shopfront - lets me in without key. Menu Title still black instead of white. Close all down.
Start fresh browser go to shopfront - put in key. Debugging console pops up?! It doen't function ( page parts dont move when runing mouse over it) Close it down - page menu titles still black. Click to go to another page - debugging console pops up again!!! Close all down. Wierd.
I am using Firefox - it has been working fine. ( I have recently installed an update) could this be a problem? I did have a problem yesterday Firefox would not allow any pop ups again a sudden problem - but I thought I has resolved it - now it seems to have gone pop up mad!
Has anyone else had this? I really do not want to go back to the bad old days of ie.

Can anyone help? Please

Ok, first, all text is green in webmaster mode, so you can't preview what the text will look like then.

Second, turn off the debug console in General Settings.

Third, remember, the side menu items are links, so you need to edit not only the main style, but all of the link styles as well.

Hi,

I have been editing skin1.css is there another css file I should be editing - I cannot find anymore???

[balinor]

skin1.css is it. The styles that control the side menu links are these:

.VertMenuItems{
COLOR: #330000; TEXT-DECORATION: none;
}
.VertMenuItems:link {
COLOR: #330000; TEXT-DECORATION: none;
}
.VertMenuItems:visited {
COLOR: #330000; TEXT-DECORATION: none;
}
.VertMenuItems:hover {
COLOR: #550000; TEXT-DECORATION: underline;
}
.VertMenuItems:active {
COLOR: #330000; TEXT-DECORATION: none;
}
.VertMenuHr {
COLOR: #999999;
}
.CategoriesList {
FONT-SIZE: 12px;
}
