Trying to change row line colour for table headers in CSS

Hello,

Can someone advise me how to change the colour of my row lines of my table headers on my index page through CSS? It won't allow me to do this through the admin, it has to be done in the custom CSS. I've tried to figure out which colour codes to change or even which codes represent those elements, but I can't figure it out.

Thank you

It really depends on which table headers... wouldn't you mind adding a screen shot of the exact row line

Hi Jalokim...

Yes, ok...here is a screen shot from the Admin panel showing the element I'm trying to change and the "preview" of my forum with the red lines indicating where I want the row lines. I'm using your Vista Blue Skin too btw.

Why can't you change it from the admin panel? looks like it's not grayed out or unavailable.

Try this...

Code:


td.row1, td.row2, td.row3, td.row3Right{color:  ;}


Enter the color code you want in the space.

Hi Saurus,

Thanks for the suggestion and the reply....tried your code but it didn't work. I was told that with custom CSS's that the code in the stylesheet will overwrite anything in the Admin panel. Even though it looks like I should be able to change things in the Admin, I can't.

I believe it is a hitskin issue. Maybe the creators of the hitskin do not want their styles changed?

I have tried for day's to change my theme but could not, I had to export the theme and pick a new style basic pro silver format, not a hitskin, to be able to change anything on it today, had to redo the whole thing... Oh well.

Hi Sandra...

Thanks for your reply. You CAN change some elements with Hitskins, minor things like colours, text, buttons etc., it's just a matter of getting the right code to input into the CSS stylesheet. Buttons however are still able to be changed in the Admin panel with a Hitskin.

Nobody said anything before about using a different skin. The codes I supplied are the correct parameters for phpBB2. Supply a link to your forum and I'll see if I can find the element for that skin.

Hi Saurus...I'm using phpBB3 and I entered the code you gave me exactly, substituting the colour code I wanted but it was a no-go.

phpBB2 and phpBB3 are different. If you want me to take a look for a better code I need a link.

lol... this took me a while to find....

Code:

}
li.row {
border-top: 1px solid #ffffff;
border-bottom: 1px solid #ffffff;
}

find this code and replace the #ffffff with whatever color you need.
you can also change the size of the border and you can change the top and bottom borders how you want.

this CSS is from my crystal case theme so on your CSS is won't be #ffffff
hope this helps

Hello Jalokim...this worked perfectly, thanks very much.
