I’m having a difficult time finding where to change the text color for the main CSS drop down navigation color. I’ve looked in a bunch of different places and for some reason I just can’t seem to find it. I think it’s just a little too dark and would like to change it to something just a little more light.

Any assistance anyone can give is more than appreciate. Thanks! :confused:

Hi…the color is controled by an actual image rather than a hex code as you were probably looking for.

It’s located in ja.moomenu.css – line 1


#ja-cssmenu li ul {
-moz-background-clip:border;
-moz-background-inline-policy:continuous;
-moz-background-origin:padding;
background:transparent url(../../images/trans-bg.png) repeat scroll 0 0;
border:1px solid #2D2D2D;
}

Just change the color of that 1 by 1 pixel image…and you’re good to go. Or else recode the background entirely using a hex code.


#ja-cssmenu li ul {
-moz-background-clip:border;
-moz-background-inline-policy:continuous;
-moz-background-origin:padding;
background: #ffffff none repeat scroll 0 0;
border:1px solid #2D2D2D;
}

That would give you a white background.

Have fun!
John.

I was actually looking to change the text color rather than the background color, but you led me in the right direction. I wasn’t looking at the ja_cssmenu directory before. I had to ftp in to find that directory. In case anyone else had the same question, the line I was looking for was line 85 in STYLING THE MENU section (#ja-cssmenu li a).

All I had to do was change the hex color to something a little lighter. Thanks for leading me in the right direction, jbrett! I really appreciate the help!
