Tooltip/bubble text settings

Can anyone help me and tell me where I can change font colors for the little tooltip/bubble text that pops up from the info icon next to the different fields? It seems that, with the template I'm using, the background color and font color are now the same, so the informational messages about the particular fields cannot be read.

See the style snippet below that controls the tooltip, it is found in templates\base\css\forms_adv.css

I have highlighted in bold the color value that needs to be changed.

#float_info {
    background-color: #FFFFD7;
    border: 1px solid #CCCCCC;
    padding: 3px;
    border-radius: 3px;
    -webkit-border-radius: 3px;
    -moz-border-radius: 3px;
    max-width: 300px;
}

Thank you modzzz - that was exactly what I was looking for. Just wasn't sure which stylesheet it was found in. It's appreciated!

 I tried that several times and those popup bubbles still appear with faded font and shaded background.

What a stupid default system, why not make it so people don't have to search the forums for days on end to make our sites appear at least close to 98 % of other networks.

First of all, don't make the changes to /templates/base/css/forms_adv.css. 

Add the css to: /templates/tmpl_WhateverTemplateYou'reUsing/css/forms_adv.css

Clear the site's cache. Refresh browser.

 Hi, this is what it looks like

<sub>@import url(../../base/css/forms_adv.css);

.form_advanced_table {
    border-top: 1px solid #eeeeee;
    border-right: 1px solid #eeeeee;
    border-left: 1px solid #eeeeee;
}

.form_advanced_table th,
.form_advanced_table td {
    border-bottom: 1px solid #edeeee;
}

.form_advanced_table th.block_header {
    background-color: #fff;
}</sub>

so what do i add here, the code mentioned above?

Yes.  Then clear the sites cache.

 Hi, I have tried everything and still nothing, eight hours of this for one problem.

Would you be able to post the entire code that I would paste into the forms_adv.css in the template please?

Heres what i have done, templates, current template i am using (bertif) then forms_adv.css, then paste the revised code (probably wrong) then upload, then clear admin cache, then clear browser then sign up new test account and same thing.

The bubble is still same background and faded font color and just for safe I tried on different pc too, chrome, firefox etc.

One thing that worked was i decreased the font size to 11 instead of the ridiculous 16 default and THAT worked.

I must be adding the css code the wrong way.

There are no text colour entries in those styles; the text colour is contain in a different class/ID or in a different style sheet.  That is why you are not seeing the text colour change.

I assumed that he added the font color to the css, and modified the background color to his choosing, but perhaps I assumed too much.... so here's an example of what to add to forms_adv.css, and to ensure that any other css is overridden.

#float_info {
    background-color: #151515 !important;
    border: 1px solid #303030 !important;
    color: #AAAAAA !important; /* Font color */
    padding: 3px;
    border-radius: 3px;
    -webkit-border-radius: 3px;
    -moz-border-radius: 3px;
    max-width: 300px;
}

 So after 4000 posts thats the best you know?

What the hell you doing helping folks?

Seriously, i have seen some of your posts, shit this and shit that you have said...no YOU are a windbag housonnotlively.

i asked you for help and THATS the best?

This forum sucks ass ..seriously, and i have designed many website traffic programs in the last fifteen years, member of the most discreet forums online (with intelligent people) and i ask a simple question which YOU the supposedly knowit all houstonknowitall can't friggen answer?

Well heres to you...you are full of shit.

 You doing drugs lady? Seriously? My God ...that post is over 120 days old, OH! I  get it, you are like the rest of the TROLLS here looking for post counts..like houstonknowitall...

Damn! whos leg I gotta hump around here for an intelligent solution?

Zarcon? ...not yet anyways.

This topic shows that you came into it 8 hours ago and left a comment stating you could not do a simple CSS change.  Now bugger off $&@!)(^.

I've seen some mental midgets show up in this forum, but this numnuts is brain dead.

 relax, you certainly need to relax a bit more and not to see everyone else as smart as you :-)

Don't waste your time Diddy.  This guy couldn't find his ass if it had a bell on it.

 Thats the best help, thank you.

Suggest you make the most of it.  You probably won't get much help around here in the future, after your childish display of ignorance.

 I'd rather pay someone than listen to a jackass like you, it was a simple request, either you could have helped me OR just shut the hell up...friggen wanker forum troller, bet you got more posts than you do memebrs in any site...right? Lonely or something?

I did help you.  You're just too stupid to realize it. You probably don't even realize how dumb you are making yourself look by bashing someone that gave you 100% correct advice.  I even took the trouble to add the code to my very own forms_adv.css on my very own site, just to make sure it was 100% correct. Don't take my word for it though.... go ask any coder on  this site about this post:  See what they tell you. 

here's an example of what to add to forms_adv.css, and to ensure that any other css is overridden.

#float_info {
    background-color: #151515 !important;
    border: 1px solid #303030 !important;
    color: #AAAAAA !important; /* Font color */
    padding: 3px;
    border-radius: 3px;
    -webkit-border-radius: 3px;
    -moz-border-radius: 3px;
    max-width: 300px;
}

P.S. The operative word here is 'example'

 My apologies sir, I had no idea one needed firefox bug, guess i expected too much from you as a very popular person in the forum. iasked you the specifics and YOU sir did not give the correct answer , and just so you know whithout saying WHO on here also told me you were wrong sir, THEY fixed it and it WASN'T THAT simple as you had put it.

Maybe you are so experienced that you should think about those that don't know it all like you instead of starting to bash one back who gets mad at YOUR stupidity?

A DUMB teacher like you leads many astray, had you posted the REAL fix to this it would have been done. Now go piss off and enjoy your kingdom of stupidity.

And relating to one of your previous posts, maybe a get a check up with a nut dr. since you implied everyone on here should get an evaluation.

Bring it on houston, kiss my black ass :)

It was an IQ test.  I wanted to see if you could figure out how to do something, if all I did was tell you.  You failed miserably.  I stand by my 100% correct answer, until someone with a brain can prove otherwise.

 Why would you do something like that? Why would you play on someones emotions like that? Why would you be a part of the sick world out there that helps to discourage people? Why would you not simply assist instead of deter? Well houston, you are mentally challenging but i love a challenge. However, I know you want to find out who figured out your were wrong, along with all the other posts that were wrong with the code, sadly there is more than that wrong, it is not a simple fix as displayed and for a reason...I will give you a hint...boonex loves forum traffic. And everything is designed to force good old 50 year old guys like me who know many other coding experiences to frequent the forum and ask for help. Hence like the conspiracy files, leave everything in the dark and they will look for answers. So anyways, it WAS fixed by a longtime member that did something else that NO ONE else has displayed the options or instructions to do so, and they did it in two minutes. Care to tell us how houstonlively, or as i stand by my word until proven different, YOU are a windbag?

Wait a minute. You're 50 years old?  Wow.... my guess was off by about  38 years.

 And that has proved my point, case closed.

 Not sure what your point was, but mine was that your behavior is that of a 12 year old.
