Hi,

I've searched the forum and found something about changing the link color through css, but that's not exactly what I'm looking for.

I'm trying to get two different text-colors for links (e.g. black and white, depending on the background)
Please see the attachment for details

I changed the link-text-color in the style.css:

---snip---

a {color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: none;}
a:hover {COLOR: #555555; TEXT-DECORATION: none; background-color:#F5E283;}

--- snip ---

Works perfect for the SYS_MENU on a dark background
But on a bright background, I would like to change the link-text-color to black (for the SUB_MENU)

Before switching to coppermine  I was able to override the css settings by using

<a style="font-family:'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Arial;color:#323533" href="xxx">xxx</a>

to get the desired "link-color"

But how can i achieve this with the {SUB_MENU}

Many thanks in advance

define link properties for the css class that wraps the menu you want to see changed, something like

Code: [Select]

a.test { color:black;}

[mdssdm]

Done the modifcation in template.html and style.css and added a class for SYS_Menu and SUB_Menu.
Links went black but not entirely 

Link color for Album and Search remains unchanged (white)

--- snip template.html ---

<table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="900" style="border-left:1px solid #A2A2A3; border-right:1px solid #A2A2A3; border-top:1px solid #D7D7D7">
   <tr> <td class="SubMenu" style="background-image:url(./themes/blue/images/tverlauf3.jpg)" height="20" width="1" align="center"> {SUB_MENU}</td> </tr>

doesn't surprise me, as you changed the class that controls the menu. The search and album links are controlled by different classes. Take a look at http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=24056.msg123520#msg123520 to find out what class controls what section of the output.

Already using the Web-Developer Tool for Mozilla. It's a very useful little thing...

But it shows me only the css class which I declared to controll the Menu (in this case .SubMenu)
So I'm stuck in here

Other interesting thing is:

Using Mozilla under linux the link color for "Album" and "Search" remains unchanged,
but using Konqueror all links are changing to black

Will try IE tomorrow, maybe there is a problem in interpreting css instructions for different Browsers

[mdssdm]

Well it's a completely different picture on IE....

Display is cluttered really awful, especially the SubMenu row, or better what was suppoesed to be the SubMenu row.
It's not a row anymore, more like columns....

Right now, I'm not quite sure what's going on

Will also try Opera
