Hello DNN Folks.

I am using DNN 5.6.4.  I am trying to change the COLOR attribute of the Search text box.  I have used:

/* Search Box text color */
#dnn_dnnSEARCH_txtSearch.NormalTextBox
{
color:red;
}

However, when I look at the rendered css in Firebug, I see that the css that I have entered has been applied to the portal.css file but has been over ridden by the default.css file.

I have also unsuccessful tried using:
#Body .dnn_dnnSEARCH_txtSearch.NormalTextBox

Anyone have another idea?

Thanks.

As a rule we try not to change css code in either the portal.css or default.css files. Since both of these files are over written any time you update your dnn core.

Instead I would be looking at adding the changes you desire to the skin.css file in the skin your site is using.

This should also ensure that the order of loading allows the skin.css to override the default.css definition.

And if all else fails color:red !Important; will force color:red to override all other definitions.
