How to change font size and color in header!!

[laurieudy]

i am trying to change the font and color in the header. I want to change Log in checkout and Shopping Cart. Below is what I have:

<?php if ($_SESSION['customer_id']) { ?>

<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_LOGOFF, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF; ?></a></li>

<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT; ?></a></li>

<?php

} else {

if (STORE_STATUS == '0') {

?>

<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_LOGIN; ?></a></li>

<?php } } ?>



<?php if ($_SESSION['cart']->count_contents() != 0) { ?>

<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS; ?></a></li>

<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CHECKOUT; ?></a></li>

<?php }?>

</ul>

</div>

<div id="navMainSearch"><?php require(DIR_WS_MODULES . 'sideboxes/search_header.php'); ?></div>

<br class="clearBoth" />

</div>

A little tip, 99.9% of the time in web development font size and color is NOT going to be controlled by the actual php/html code, or at least it should not be. You want to find the .css file and find the class/id that those items are referencing.

e.g.

#navMain a{
font-size:1.3em;
font-color:#fafafa;
}

this would change the home/checkout/login/shopping cart links to the above specified font size and color.

Dear Chronister:
I have been trying to change the font color in the home, log in of the header, and "home" in the footer, among others.

Could you tell me (in red) where exactly should I made the changes you suggested?
Thanks,
Marlake
