From sidebox to header but can't change color!

I've been trying for the past few hours without any luck so any help is immensely appreciated!!

I've placed my currency sidebox into the header instead and it goes up there fine. This is what I did:

1. Replaced last line of \includes\modules\sideboxes\currency with this:
   require($template->get_template_dir($column_box_default, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'common') . '/' . $column_box_default);

2. Then I added this to my tpl_header:

Everything worked out beautifully.

But I needed to change the color of this currency "sidebox" cos my sideboxes are blue while my header is grey.

Tried changing the background color of the currency sidebox. No go.
Tried changing the background color for #navcurrencies. Doesn't work.

Does anyone have a solution? This is driving me nuts!

Thanks in advance!!

Did you try change the colour of the background colour of the #headerWrapper ?

Hi limelites,

I presume you meant this:
#headerWrapper }
background-color: #666666
}

if so, it didn't work.
thanks though...

oh gosh, finally cracked it.. or rather, i solved it by doing things the other way round.

Changed the sideboxContent background color to grey (color of header) and then changed the background color of the individual sideboxes back to blue.

at least it worked..
