white on white in drop down box

[itbob]

When I post a reply I get white on white for the message icon and change color boxes.  I am running Dark Red theme on SMF 1.1.13.

Any idea where it is changed?

Have a look at the theme's style.css file.

It's quite well commented. So, you should find the section you need, easily enough.

Themes/DarkRed_1/style.css
Find this:

Koodi [Valitse] Laajenna

/* Selects are a bit smaller, because it makes them look even better 8). */
select
{
font-size: 10pt;
font-weight: normal;
background-color: #ffffff;
color: #ffffff;
font-family: Tahoma, arial, helvetica, serif;
}
Make it this:

Koodi [Valitse] Laajenna

/* Selects are a bit smaller, because it makes them look even better 8). */
select
{
font-size: 10pt;
font-weight: normal;
background-color: #fff;
color: #000;
font-family: Tahoma, arial, helvetica, serif;
}

What do you mean by "preview"? Are you editing that CSS file in the Admin area? I highly recommend doing things like editing site files locally and FTPing your changed files up from there (leaves room for multiple undos if needed).

I do download a copy to my machine before I change anything. Then I make changes in the admin area and use preview to see if it works. If I mess it up then the downloaded copy gets put back.
