Hi all,
My name is Wellard, I am am very new to web+forum design.
I have made a new skin for my forum. The only trouble is when Someone goes to post a reply, the background image still shows through. I would like to make the post box to a solid black. Does anyone have any ideas as to what code to change in the css_default skin.
Cheers.

Perhaps if you provide a link to your forum wellard others will be able to see the skin, and what you mean too

Might have the answer for you wellard:

Open up the css file that your skin is using, and see where it says this:
Quote
.RTEtextarea{
   background-color: #FFFFFF;
   color: #000000;
   margin: 2px;
}

.RTEmouseOver{
   background-color: #FFFFFF;
   color: #000000;
}


Just add in these lines after that bit

/*Start TWS Mod*/
.WebWizRTEtextarea {
 font-size: .75em;
 font-family: Verdana,Arial;
 color: #FFFFFF;
 background-color: #000000;
}
/*End TWS Mod*/

Of course its not a mod, but I only used that so I could find the lines again later LOL

The problem is:

opacity:0.70;
filter:alpha(opacity=70);

This is applied to the body (aka the whole page).

I havent played with opacity much, but i dont think you can fix this, as the RTE box is inheriting this opacity too.

only way is to modify it to apply it to tables, and give the reply box a new name and not give that table the opacity.

Or remove the opacity lines that Scotty quoted and that should also solve the problem with the text box
