Stylesheet of your current templates

 background-color: #ffffff;
 }

Re: change background colour shipping estimator

Ok...try the following..create a white image named
infoback.gif, place that image in your current template's
images folder...remove code in my first post..then add

#popupShippingEstimator, #popupSearchHelp, #popupAdditionalImage, #popupImage, #popupCVVHelp, #popupCouponHelp, #popupAtrribsQuantityPricesHelp, #infoShoppingCart {
background-color: #ffffff;
background-image: url(../images/infoback.gif);
background-repeat: repeat-y;
background-repeat: repeat-x;
 }

Re: change background colour shipping estimator

Have you solved the problem? I see a black/white gradient bg for the main pages, and a white bg for the popup.
Is this something that needs the cache cleared to get rid of the problem version of the display?

The shipping estimator is already separated from the standard pages from #mainWrapper on dowm; any styling applied to the "body" in the main stylesheet will apply to #popupShippingEstimator unless specifically altered. The background-image was apparently applied to #mainWrapper (at least it is now), not body, so it does not apply to the popup.

You don't need to specify a background-image url to override the body bg. A declaration of
background: #ffffff;
(specifying bg color only)
will set all undeclared background aspects to default, i.e. "none" for image.

I can't offer better advice on how to make your backgrounds work, as they appear to be working now :)

Re: change background colour shipping estimator

OK, so I need a time machine :)
What was/is the image name for the circuit board design, and where was it called out in the stylesheet?

Re: change background colour shipping estimator

I get the error in both Firefox and IE6. Could it have something to do with the fact that Misty and you are both in the UK and I am in the US?
I really don't see why that should be, since I got to your site earlier. Maybe the Web is hiccupping right now?
