Topmost User Menu bar font color...

I have a new skin I am trying out... BUT the top menu "user" bar has a font-color="white" and I can not find it in the style sheets....

What tag or section should I be looking for to change the User Menu (top) to a different color?  Like black?

Thanks
Phill

Hi,

I recommend you to use FireFox add on that's name is FireBug. that is a great tools for find each elements in page and their's style.

You can add this add on in your FF browser in this URL:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1843/

I thing style of Main menu's text   is:

div.AspNet-Menu-Horizontal ul.AspNet-Menu li.AspNet-Menu-Leaf a.AspNet-Menu span {
background-color: red;
color: #000000;
}

I hope this help you!

Sadegh,

Thanks for the advise.  I am using IE8 and it has some decent tools to for viewing Tags etc.

I do not see any of the div tags you mention.  I would like to change the properties in the CSS file.... but which?

I noted that many of the solutions mentined in the forums are to check the stylemenu or styletreeview  BUT I noticed that the skin I am basing mine on (artisteer-24flashclouds) does not have either the "stylemenu" or "styletreeview" css files in it.

Where else would the top nav menu bar have its properties stored?

Thanks
Phill

PS

I just checked ALL the CSS files in this skin and only the stylemenu file has the "AspNet-Menu-Horizontal" entry in it.  Which as I said is NOT part of this skin??? Very strange!

Hi Phill,

Can you post a link to your site?

If you are seeing a font-color setting anywhere, you have a problem in your CSS or possibly layout.master as it is not a valid CSS property.

Thanks,
Joe D.

Hi All,

I think Phil is talking about the top menu where the Home, Sign In/Sign Out links are not the main site menu.

If that is the case, in that specific skin (artisteer-24flashclouds) the color is coming from this line in stylemojo.css:

.sitelink,a.sitelink:link,a.sitelink:visited { color:#fff; text-decoration: none; }

Hope it helps,

Joe
