This is not a bug, But.....

Why on earth, can't I change the text color of the active link in a dropdown menu in a css file?

The style information associated with it is:

element.style {
color:#333333;
font-weight:bold;
}

This has been driving me nuts for quite a while now.  I finally found where this is getting it's style....

.. from /templates/base/scripts/BxBaseMenu.php   about line 752:

$sIActiveStyles = ($bActive) ? 'color:#333;font-weight:bold;' : '';


Geezus guys.... don't you think it would be a lot more convenient for template designers if this got it's style from.... say..... top_menu.css ?

Maybe I should just wait for Dolphin 12

Since starting to use Dolphin I have followed in silence every word you say. I have just tried this and stll it doesn't solve my issue even though I think it s the same issue. I need to change both the font colour and background in the drop down menu on all pages.

Everything else I have covered.  the site is hand-ball.biz. Due to launch soon PLS help.

Complete newbie but learning fast. Thanks for all the help.

@.

You have gzip enabled and changing your css with that on is difficult. Use Firebug add on, and all your problems are solved, when it comes to finding css. Look around for templates/your_template/css/top_menu.css (maybe common.css or general.css, I cant tell with your compression on.?):

.topMenu a

color:#666666

 

As for the background of the drop down, it looks funky in there. Maybe contact template maker, or re-upload original files and of the menu and start over?

This sentance says nothing, and its possibly spellt wrong.
