How can I make these small adjustments to my forum?

[matt]

Ok I have noticed a small problem on my forum. It's not that big of a deal but I would like to fix it because I'm somewhat of a perfectionist lol. Anyway, I've noticed that on some of the input fields when you roll your mouse over them the border and the text beside it disappears. Pictured below. What do I need to change to fix this? CSS? Also how can I make the text darker on the register button because it's hard to read. Thanks in advanced.

Nobody knows? I know on this forum whenever you log in the text turns from dark grey to black and the box you type in has a blue border around whenever you hover your mouse over it. I just need to know how to change the colors.

I wish I knew.
All i know is I think the your link color is the color of the text in the Register button. change the link color and it will change.
How to "only" change that button...i have no idea

hmm, that simply because of css problem. based on your SS there i assume you use phpbb3, btw can your point me what exaclty skin your use there on hitskin.com?

it more easy to find out what your problem there if i look on your skin CSS

[metram]

you need to change you background color otherwise i cant help

[matt]

I am using Phpbb3 but I'm not using a hitskin. I'm using a skin I made. Why do I need to change my background color?

Ok since your first post I have changed this myself.
I think you need to find the part of the CSS that says

Code:

   }
fieldset dl:hover dt label {
   color: #000000;
   }

and change the black to a diff. color.

I've also changed the button too, but I can't remember...still looking for it.

Ok i got it so that the words don't disappear anymore but the border still disappears on mouseover. Is there any way to change this? This is all that show up in my CSS sheet by the way. I tried changing the select color code but it didn't do anything. Thanks for your help by the way.

select {
color: #ffffff;
}
fieldset dl:hover dt label {
color: #ffffff;
}

For the border:
in this section

/* Input------------------------------------------------------*/

look for

Code:

.inputbox:hover {
    border: 1px solid #000000;
    }

Hope that helps.

[matt]

I don't have anything like that. The only thing in my CSS sheet is:

select {
color: #ffffff;
}
fieldset dl:hover dt label {
color: #ffffff;
}

Could you post the whole code you are talking about so I can paste it into my sheet? Or is what you posted all I need to paste.

Here's a screen shot of my CSS Stylesheet:

[Carryn]

So when you click on
"see your forum basis CSS" there isn't anything?? no pop-up window with all the codes in it?

and since you asked...

Code:

/* Input------------------------------------------------------*/
.inputbox {
   background-color: #f3e4e4;
   border: 1px solid #BCBCBC;
   color: #6b6b6b;
   padding: 2px;
   cursor: text;
   }
.inputbox:hover {
    border: 1px solid #ffffff;
    }
.inputbox:focus {
   border: 1px solid #000000;
   color: #6b6b6b;
   }
input.inputbox{
    width: 85%;
    }
input.medium{
    width: 50%;
    }
input.narrow{
    width: 25%;
    }
input.tiny{
    width: 110px;
    }
textarea.inputbox {
    width: 85%;
    }

Ok thanks a lot that worked great. Now I only have one more problem. I'm using a dark grey and black scheme for my forum. For the text color I have a light grey color which looks great. However, I have my text fields white and I'm trying to figure out how to make the text inside the field for posting a comment black. If I change the text color which is what controls it, then it changes my titles, topics, and everything. I'd like to keep my default text color light grey but the color of the text in the post a reply box to be black. How can I achieve this? Thanks again.

I'm not sure about the input text, but since you are happy with the gray text color, why don't you change the input background to something other than white--so the text shows better.


/* Input------------------------------------------------------*/
.inputbox {
background-color: #292929;

Maybe someone else knows the answer.
