    Default Need help changing Sidebox font colour please

    Good Afternoon,

    I want to change the link colours on my side box, below is what they look like now, but I dont like the green and red at all, doesnt go with the rest of the site.

    I have looked in the css stylesheet, but can not seem to find the green font colour anywhere (I use paint shop pro to check the html colours)

    Would some kind person please point me in the right direction where I should be looking. I was looking between Line 20 and 36 (below) but cant seem to find it.

    a:link, #navEZPagesTOC ul li a {
    color: #3300FF;
    text-decoration: none;
    }

    a:visited {
    /*color: #3300FF;*/
    text-decoration: none;
    }

    a:hover, #navEZPagesTOC ul li a:hover, #navMain ul li a:hover, #navSupp ul li a:hover, #navCatTabs ul li a:hover {
    color: #FF0000;
    }

    a:active {
    color: #0000FF;
    }

    Thanks for your time
    Kind Regards
    Nikki

    P.S I did search the forum, but couldnt find an answer.

    You have posted the correct listings for these colors...there are the four and they depend on the state of the link. visited or not etc.

    If you are changing these with no effect, double check that you are editing the correct css file. Maybe use FireFox & the web developers tools & css viewer extentions.

    Just read the override post... and if your uktemplate is the selected template in the admin...then the css file you should be editing in in includes/templates/uktemplate/css/stylesheet.css

    Thanks so much Kobra, Well, I have tried and tried to change the green and red font colours in my category box, and have checked all the stylesheets, so am a bit stumped.

    The Information box fonts are all fine.. take a peek www.angelic-dezigns.co.uk/shop
    I even used firefox css>view css, and the colours shouldnt be green and red..lol..

    Any ideas, so sorry to bug you, yet again

    Kind Regards
    Nikki

    P.S Got the override system sussed out now thanks to you

    The FireFox Web developer tool magic is very useful
    BTW how do I remove the trailing dots from the category names. as shown on attachment. I want to remove behind the category names. E.g. New Products.....

    Why do you have stylesheet.css and stylesheet_new.css? You probably only need one of them. Both are being loaded and the last one loaded always overrides the same formatting that was done by an earlier stylesheet.

    I'm seeing the links in blue with red as the hover color. I don't see any green.
