I am trying to change the color of the left column boxes. Where do I look for the code that controls that?

Hi Becky

Which site is this on?

noveltytrophies.com
also the homepage fills the whole screen instead of having a border color around it.

That is the other thing I am trying to fix before I apply the changes to the whole site.

Hi Becky in style.css around line 32 it shows that there is a background image being used but the path is incorrect.
change this, check style.css for any other images where the path may need to be adjusted.

background: url(../images/bg.jpg);

to

background: url(/images/bg.jpg);

Any thoughts on changing the color of the left side menu

Becky Whipp

Hi Becky, the top menu is not working correctly the links are missing the opening quote " and some are hard coded with http and others https this can cause customers to lose their cart contents set links so that they are relative and not absolute. Check all links that may need fixing including the left menu. Also modern browsers support html5 and recognize blank as the target I would change new to blank see 6.16 https://www.w3.org/TR/html401/types.html#type-frame-target

Change:


<li class="dd"><a href=http://www.yourdomain.com/products.php?cat=Loser+Awards" target="new">Loser Awards</a></li>

<li class="dd"><a href=http://www.yourdomain.com/products.php?cat=Corporate+Meetings" target="new">Corporate Meetings</a></li>

<li class="dd"><a href=https://http://www.yourdomain.com/funnytrophies.php" target="new">Gag Gift</a></li>

To

<li class="dd"><a href="/products.php?cat=Loser+Awards" target="blank">Loser Awards</a></li>

<li class="dd"><a href="/products.php?cat=Corporate+Meetings" target="blank">Corporate Meetings</a></li>

<li class="dd"><a href="/funnytrophies.php" target="blank">Gag Gift</a></li>


Side colors:
To change the background color of the full left container add background-color attribute to .sidebar1 in the style.css around line 112
To change shop by product container on the left add background-color attribute to .cat ul in the style.css around line 148
To change links within set the background-color on the class .cat li in the style sheet around line 153

That helped a lot.
Can you tell me why I have no color border surrounding my page.
Please reference joketrophy.com to see an example

Hi Becky

Check the background colour and / or image set on the body class in the css file then compare that to your other site.
