Hi,

I’m using a default install of the template in the latest version of Joomla (v 1.5.12). I’ve been through the CSS but can’t find where the background colour is being set for the slideshow module. I’m using the default style and want to change the colour to purple. Any help would be appreciated.

Bump??

I’m sure its a simple line of CSS that’s just alluding me.

what background are you talking about? the dark grey on the sides?

Yes the dark grey on the sides. I found sl-bg.gif in the ja_sulfur/images folder but that only contains the drop-shadow.

It is the bit in red below.

template.css (line 1114)

#ja-slideshow {background:#454545 url(../images/topsl-bg.gif) repeat-x scroll left bottom;
border-top:1px solid #353535;
clear:both;
display:block;
float:left;
margin:0;
position:relative;
width:100%;
z-index:1;
}

Hi Phil,

Thanks for your prompt reply. As it turns out the grey isn’t defined within the CSS, but instead resides in /images/topsl-bg.gif and /images/sl-bg.gif. No wonder I couldn’t find it!!

Thanks- was able to change my background without having to ask anyone how to do it.

Sweet……

Here’s a link to my site. I am using the green JA Sulfur template, but wanted a black border around my slideshow pictures.
