Solved White on white problem in Profile pop-up menus

Post by Kerry Kistler January 16th 2010, 6:05 am

Hi,
In the area where a member sets up their Profile info, I have found a bug with 3 pop-up menus. Profile/Birth Day & Month; Preferences/Timezone. Those pop-up menus show white text on a white background - which means you cant see the choices unless you hover over them. How can I fix this? I'm running phpbb2.

Thanks for any advice,
Kerry

Here's the weird thing about that - I went through my css code with a fine tooth comb and wrote down every #hex in the whole code. Then I used an online html color code generator to view what each color looked like. Not one of them matches the darker shade of blue which is the background color of my post editor box. I don't think the problem could be located there.

Display>Colors
Text Color : Change that to something else. It will change the whole text color of your forum except the links.

There must be 20 different places to change the text color depending on where the text is used. Some of the text on my forum is yellow, some white, some black, etc. That is the main issue here. Where in the CSS code is this one specific problem area?

Code:
 select{
color:#FF00FF !important;
}
Add that code to your css, see if it works.

Hi guys !

Is it possible to have your personal CSS stylesheet Kerry Kistler ?
At least the entire code of the profile you use.

Also be aware that any problem relating to CSS, it's essential to give your forum version for appropriate assistance. Wink

No worries.

But do check my code first Kerry. I think it works only for drop down boxes.
