Category Selector in Header

[amplexus]

I use the classic template for my store, and there is a header at the top with the search box, then below: a banner for the store, then below that a category selector with all the categories in this shade of gray. What I want to do is find the php file for that little category selector up near the top of the page and change the color to something other then gray for the text.

You can see the cart at: http://www.arrowheadshopping.com/

Any ideas?

This is not controlled by PHP.

This is a CSS function and is controlled by stylesheets.

Currently, in your stylesheet, you have TWO declarations governing the colour of the links:

#navMain ul li a, #navSupp ul li a, #navCatTabs ul li a {
	text-decoration: none;
	padding: 0em 0.5em;
	margin: 0;
	color: #ffffff;
	white-space: nowrap;
	}

#navCatTabs ul li a {
	color: #9a9a9a;
	}

This bottom one OVER-RIDES the one above it.

The #9a9a9a is that GREY colour

Bright RED would be #FF0000

PS:

Think about creating a custom template rather than use classic...

Where would I find that style sheet?

And why do you suggest using a different template?

[amplexus]

I changed the style sheet for my custom template. It does not seem to have any effect on the links below the banner.

I hope I don't sound patronising, but these questions you are asking are very fundamental, and have been addressed many times before.

Have you searched the forum for answers?

The book is also a very good idea for people who have a need to learn the fundamentals.

I have the manual and have searched the forums of course, and have edited the CSS files that I think control the link colors. For one reason or another though, this has had no effect on the link colors. What reasons can you think of would cause this?

You currently have two stylesheets, and both are being loaded, so they may be conflicting with one another. Renaming a stylesheet file won't keep it from being loaded if it's in the CSS folder and has a .css extension. Move the one you don't want to load to a different directory, or name it stylesheet.OLD.
