I've used the skinning guide to update colors, etc. for my forum after using the automated skin generator to get the basic color scheme I wanted to use. I realized after reviewing all the pages that some of the input field are not visible because the background is too light and the borders aren't visible. Some I've found in the CSS files and darkened the background of the box surrounding the input field, but I can't find the CSS for all the affected input fields. I'd rather change input field borders than change the background surrounding the input fields, but at this point I'll do anything that makes the input field visible. If it helps, all of them have a thick light blue fade top border, and on a light background it appears there are no bottom or side borders.

These are the fields I can't find the CSS for:

Your control panel -> Settings->
1. Change Email Address input fields
2. Change Password input fields
3. Change Display Name input fields

Your control panel -> Profile ->
1. Change Profile Information, bottom of page: Other Information, all input fields
2. Profile Customization -> Profile Background "Enter a URL to an image" input field
3. IP Address Look-up Tool "Enter the IP address" input field
4. Member Look-up Tool "User name" input field

Admin -> Messenger -> left column, Search Messages input field


Thanks in advance for any response, your help is most appreciated!

Welcome aboard Posted Image

Please, don't double post.

In order for me to see those fields, you'd have to create a test profile and provide me with a login.

Hello, one more background that I need to change in CSS (that I can't find css item for), the Search Form that is accessed from the Advanced Search button. Thanks again for your help.

That would be:

Quote

#main_search_form #other_filters, #main_search_form .extra_filter fieldset {

-moz-box-shadow: 2px 2px 2px #FFFFFF;

background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #FFFFFF;

margin: 0 10px 10px;}
