In custom blocks that are added to the front page Center Up area... where is the code located that changes the color of the Block Title?

(Not the blocks along the side)

In mainfile.php under function themecenterbox

Code:







function themecenterbox($title, $content) {


    OpenTable();


    echo "<center><font color=\"FFFFFF\" class=\"option\"><b>$title</b></font></center><br>"


   ."$content";


    CloseTable();


    echo "<br>";


}

I did this, and it didnt change it.

Try coding it into style.css
You have specified a colour in your code, but the class as "option".
Depends what colour "option" is set at in style.css of theme currently in use.

Here is my mainfile.php

Code:




function themecenterbox($titlecenterbox, $content) {


    OpenTable();


    echo "<center><font class=\"titleblock\"><b>$titlecenterbox</b></font></center><br>"


   ."$content";


    CloseTable();


    echo "<br>";

So what am I doing wrong?

Posted: Wed Mar 03, 2004 12:08 pm

Code:

.option     {BACKGROUND: none; COLOR: #000000; FONT-SIZE: 10px;

In style.css, "option" class colour is set as black, so introduce another class in your style.css called "option1", code the colour as white i.e. #FFFFFF, and then code your center block to class "option1".

I am sorry, I am just not getting this.

mainfile.php

Code:




function themecenterbox($option1, $content) {


    OpenTable();


    echo "<center><font class=\"title\"><b>$option1</b></font></center><br>"


   ."$content";


    CloseTable();


    echo "<br>";

style.css

Code:




.boxcontent  {BACKGROUND: none; COLOR: #222222; FONT-SIZE: 10px; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana, Helvetica} 


.option      {BACKGROUND: none; COLOR: #000000; FONT-SIZE: 10px; FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana, Helvetica; TEXT-DECORATION: none} 


.option1     {BACKGROUND: none; COLOR: #FFFFFF; FONT-SIZE: 10px; FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana, Helvetica; TEXT-DECORATION: none} 


.titleblock  {BACKGROUND: none; COLOR: #FFFFFF; FONT-SIZE: 10px; FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana, Helvetica; TEXT-DECORATION: none}

Am I editing the right files? Am I forgetting a variable?

Should be

Code:




function themecenterbox($title, $content) {


    OpenTable();


    echo "<center><font class=\"option1\"><b>$title</b></font></center><br>"


   ."$content";


    CloseTable();


    echo "<br>";

I updated using the above code change....

Still didnt make a change. I force the use of this single theme, and I have refreshed half a dozen times.

Without having a copy of actual theme you are using, to test, regret cannot help you further on this Sad

Its ok, I tore the code apart last night, and found that the class=option call is being referred to somewhere else in the code, in another file perhaps. I band-aided it, so it is ok.

I appreciate your help, and wish I could have provided enough info for you to help me out.

Have a great day!
