cant get the background color to change

[jmiller]

Hey ive changed all the colors i needed on my theme i made but i cant seem to get the background colors from defualt white and grey to change them both to black.

any idea where these colors can be changed at i looked in style.css and found nothing and the other index templates. Thanks

index.templete.php:

Code Select Expand


// For some STRANGE reason, we have to tell Internet Explorer 4 and 5 that the content should be 100% wide. (or else it will assume about 108%!)
echo '
<div style="background-color:

Code Select Expand

// The main content should go here.  A table is used because IE 6 just can't handle a div.
echo '
<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"><tr>
<td style="background-color:

Yes I also got a bit stuck on that a while back, search for the word 'white' and you should get the code Owdy posted, just change it to whatever you need.

Mr. Dean. If he search 'white' he only finds one  of those. That second isnt white. Why he cant just search code i posted?

That was general advice, when you want to change a field, search for its color name, it may help.
