template hell.. need some help or at least where to look

1:memberships ALL WHITE (need black background, white text))
2:CONTACTS friends all white (need black background, white text)
3:problem with comments posting for wall  (gray text on white very hard to see, needs to be black)
missing zodiac signs (will search earlier versions of dolphin to find them and install them)
subscribe box is WHITE! (needs to be black with white text)

can anyone point me in the right directions.. i have checked the template common.css and general.css and have had little luck at all changing these problems. thanks

Use firefox browser with firebug plugin to find every thing you need.   Most helpfull webmastertools.

i don't need the color codes.. i have eyedropper for that..

I need to know what files to edit so i can get this ugly white off my website.

Turn off CSS caching in dolphin and take another look with firebug.

Firebug is much more than just something that tells you the color codes.

Firebug will show you all CSS elements. Not just colors. It also tells you exactly what CSS file it is in and what line it is on.

When you ask us to tell you where something is, firebug is the tool we use to find it for you. We don't actually have all of dolphins css stuff memorized. Given how much there is, it's impossable. We have to look it up. And firebug is how we find it.

Thanks. That one i can use thoughoughly.... but for now a quick fix...

I have a stupid logon menu overriding my current one.

in the css i have put the real one and also in the templates root directory of ajax and html...

but something is overriding it...

anyone know a quick fix or delete in a specific file to get rid of this while i install firebug

I'm asking how to kill the login menu overriding my css from other general.css or common.css... i need to know what to delete...

I tried that firebug... and my menu shows up perfectly on firefox without any problems...

but with internet explorer the damn secondary login menu pops up killing the root one.. the one i want displayed.
