Blocks background

Blocks background

In modifying a theme to suit our needs I've changed the background color to one that is darker than the original.  However, now there is a peculiar problem.

The unordered list (ul) items (those that begin with a bullet) now appear to be underlined in white (or almost white).  This "underlining" includes the bullet.  I think this may actually be a bottom border rather than true a true underline because the links are underlined as usual when the pointer hovers over them and in addition to the white line that always appear beneath each item.

I've been unable to determine what css statements are producing the white lines.  Your help in figuring this out would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

Mike

Hey Mike,

Get CSS Viewer for firefox:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2104

add the plug-in and fire it up - you will be able to mouse over your block and see what CSS is controlling it.

Hey Ken,

Thanks.  I got the css viewer and with it was able to find and correct the bottom-border properties that were causing the problem.  Handy tool.
