Title: Modify CSS for my Theme
Post by: cepsi on January 26, 2009, 02:47:06 PM
Hi im trying to change the background color in my drop down boxes. At the moment it is Black and when there are alot of items in the box it can be fairly annoying.
I assumed it would be in the Style sheet but cant find it anywhere, are they called something else or are they in another folder? Any help much appreciated :)

i.e:

You can use it to highlight that dropdown menu, which will show you the class that is associated with it so you can change the color. Check out some of the tutorials on youtube if you need to learn how to use firebug.

Add the Firebug button to Firefox's menu bar, Customise. Then use the Inspect button.

Have a nose on the site: http://getfirebug.com/

Click the "Learn More" buttons for brief discriptions on features.
