Need help: Change font colors

[essjackson]

Hi - I am trying to change the font color that displays in the shopping basket and checkout pages. My global header/footer has html to match the rest of my site, and includes .css for the font color I am wanting to display, but the Shopping Basket and Checkout pages still show the default black. I have changed the font color in the "Colors" tab, but it still defaults to black.

Any suggestions as to how I can make the change?

Thanks

Page please?

Did you use hex code to put in your new color? If so, did you put a # before the number? A missing # can cause this.

I used "#" with the hex color in "Colors" and that didn't work.

The site is http://www.muddypawsgraphics.com

It's the Shopping Basket and checkout pages that have the black text that I want to change to light gray. The other (product) pages respond to the .css rules just fine.

Thanks for any suggestions.

I can't seem to get to any product pages. Clicking on the large image in the flash player doesn't take me anywhere, like it says it's supposed to.

Please try again. Everything is working: Click on a large image in the slideshow (http://www.muddypawsgraphics.com). That will take you to a page with another image of the card. Scroll down to see an order form. Fill in the fields on the order form, and you will be directed to the shopping basket. That is where the font color is Black. I want to change the font color in the basket to #cccccc.

Thanks!

Do you use any page template modules? If so you should check your code in that module. There may be a token you can add for body font or something.

The problem with applying css is that there already exists inline formating for the header:


<FONT FACE = "arial" SIZE = "2" COLOR = "">
<B>
Code
</B>
</FONT>



You can remove that by going to the BASK page, click Basket Contents and removing the SMT item:

<mvt:item name="fonts" param="lhdr_font">

from the template.

You can also do this in point and click mode by simply specificy nothing for the header font (Under Stores: Fonts).

Bruce, this site is MM4.

Whoops...sorry, assumed that since they where just starting out, it was 5.x

[essjackson]

Thanks for all the posts. Yes, sadly, I'm stuck in MM4. I will need to find another host in order to upgrade, but it will have to be after the holidays. Anyway, I thank you for your suggestions. Unfortunately, none of them worked. Is there a way to get into the root file somewhere and make the change?

Are you using any page template modules? Such as Viking Coder's Other Page Templates

[essjackson]

No, I'm not. I don't know about that, but would be interested in knowing more. Would that be a fix?

[klassic]

That module gives you full control over many of the miva merchant pages. Though this would be overkill for changing a font color. Especially if you plan to move to mm5 in the near future as you implied. I am not sure where to direct you from here.

Thanks! I'll look into it. Is it easy to install?
