    Default Side Box Font Color

    I did a search on this and I'm sure I found the answer but I don't understand computer code. I sure with a little help I can figure this out.

    The font color in my shopping cart side box is a light grey on a white background so it is hard to read what is in your shopping cart. How do I change the font color? Be easy on me, I'm not the smartest when it comes to computers.

    Find your stylesheet.css file in your local copy of Zen Cart's files, and in a good text editor (not a word processor) enter this at the bottom of the stylesheet...

    #cartsummaryContent { color: #000000; }

    That will make the text black in that sidebox only. (Those are zeros, not ohs.)

    Save the stylesheet and ftp it into your css folder, preferably in your custom folder structure, which you can read about in the Tutorials/FAQ section (link at the top of this page.)

    PS
    If your stylesheet has already been customized, don't make this change in the default stylesheet and then ftp it over your custom one. That would be bad. ;-) Download a copy of your custom one and edit it, then ftp it back to the server.

    Okay, I found stylesheet_custom.css. Would this be the correct file? And I would add the code to the very bottom?

    My website is www.barrysommerracing.com

    Thank You!

    there are three changes you have to make .
    first one .

    look for the following code in your stylesheet_custom.css

    .cartNewItem {
    color:black;
    position:relative;
    }

    add the code in red to this rule .

    2:

    .cartOldItem {
    color:black;
    position:relative;
    }
    add the code in red to this rule as well.

    3:
    in same style sheet . look for the follwoing .

    .cartBoxTotal
    color:black;
    font-weight:bold;
    text-align:right;
    }

    again add the code in red to the rule . .

    you can use any color name , or you can use code like #0000

    This regard this modification..

    nevermind that . do this
    open your stylesheet_custome.css look for the rule and add the red code

    #shoppingcartContent {(line 355)
    background:#1B263C url(../images/catbackgr1.jpg) repeat-x scroll center top;
    text-align:left;
    }

    ohh, also in same rule , remove background-color:#ffffff

    I would have been happy with the font being black so you can read it. But that looks even better.

    Thanks tony_sar!
