change navigation color

[Ivanna]

Hello,
I have Zencart v1.3.9h installed.
I am learning to use Zencart with template Barebones because it looked to be easy for learning. I know html and css but do not know php.

I try to change the color of the "Home" and "Log in" but cannot find what is controlling it. The divs are

navMain inside navMainWrapper and the links are a UL with class of "back"

I have tried to change each of these using text-color: hexcolor; but nothing changes.


Help is very appreciated. Thank you.

In your stylesheet look for

#navMain ul li a, #navSupp ul li a, #navCatTabs ul li a {

The color declaration should be in there.

Thank you, I have declaration of ul instead of declaration of a. My mistake.

My problem is I rebuild a site for person that she like and I try to add zencart to it. Now I know I must build a copy of the site inside zencart and try to make it look the same.

It will become easier when I know where each code is hiding.

thank you for your help,
Ivanna

If you're not already using it, get the Firefox browser and the web developer (or fire bug) add on which will allow you to see what controls what and change the stylesheet on the fly to see the results. You'll have to save your changes to the stylesheet separately and upload them to the site to make them permanent.

I use firebug but i did not know i can make changes from it.

for now, i take line number from firebug and look for the same line number in notepad2 then i look for change through my local host. i must not upload to server until it is finished.

thank you
