Layout / CSS questions

I don't know if this will help with question 2, but... in your stylesheet look for

.leftBoxHeading, .centerBoxHeading, .rightBoxHeading {
	margin: 0em;
	background-color: #abbbd3;
	background-image: url(../images/tile_back.gif);
	padding: 0.5em 0.2em;
	}

You can split those up into

.leftBoxHeading {
	margin: 0em;
	background-color: #abbbd3;
	color: #ffffff; (white)
	background-image: url(../images/tile_back.gif);
	padding: 0.5em 0.2em;
	}

.centerBoxHeading {
	margin: 0em;
	background-color: #abbbd3;
	color: #ff0000; (red)
	background-image: url(../images/tile_back.gif);
	padding: 0.5em 0.2em;
	}

.rightBoxHeading {
	margin: 0em;
	background-color: #abbbd3;
	color: #c0c0c0; (grey)
	background-image: url(../images/tile_back.gif);	padding: 0.5em 0.2em;
	}

Change the lines in blue to whatever suits your site. Add the lines in red with the appropriate color codes.

#1. admin>configuration>index listing -----first on on the list

#2. Afo suggestion should work as long as you are going to use the same styles for all of the center boxes. They can be targeted tighter but see if her suggestions works for you

#3. h3 #searchHeading .leftBoxHeading is what you want if its not in the stylesheet add it down in the sideboxes section

All the sections helped - I had to add a new class to control the color of the Search - and then had to change the search.php file.

I'm starting to get the hang of the overrides.

Thanks,

You'll get there. The learning curve seems pretty steep, but once you get past that point, you'll wonder why you thought it was so hard.
