Changing search hit highlight color

by Kerry Kistler January 18th 2010, 10:53 pm

When I use the search function, a list of posts appear showing the search word highlighted in a different color. How can I change that highlight color? It is very hard to read now against my background color.

Thanks for any help,
Kerry

um wow good question.. i am sure there is a easy soulution. first thing is i would go through your colors list and look for the color it is.. if you have the same color in more then one place then you will have to change it one at a time until you can narrow it down and find it..

but it should be on of the first 4

Visited Link Color :
Active Link Color :
Hover Link Color :
Header font color :
----------------------------------------------
so see if you have the color it is in one of them first.

um what version are you useing?
and if you can provide a screen shot or link to your forum.

Below is a screen shot of a search I did on the name Merry. As you can see (not see) it is very hard to read. Link to my site is below.
