changing the View Message background colour

Hi,

I am new to this site and have been stumbling through importing one of the Artisteer templates and seem to have hit a wall.

I have been able to locate most of the colour styles within the CSS files but I can not find the one to change the background colour within the contactform/view message.  I have been able to alter the background image and some of the left side message tables ones but am having problems altering the 'div id="ctl00_phmain_pnlCenter' one.

I suspect that the code is somewhere in the gridview control but as far as I can see this is set in the html <div id="ctl00_phmain_pnlCenter" style="background_color: RGB(255,255,255).." markup so no CSS file is ever going to alter this?

Any ideas how I can make the messages readable, as the template is using black backgrounds on light text.

Cheers

Re: changing the View Message background colour

Hi,

In my testing of Contact Form, I do not see any hard coded styles with rgb() when I view the source of the view menu dialog. If you are seeing that with firebug or some other tool rather than viewing source then it is possible that the jqueryui javascript is setting that.

I am able to change the color of messages detail with 

.contactmessage { color:green;}

Hope it helps,

Joe
