Hello,
I've got a dropdown menu where the text for the menu items is supposed to be a
dark gray but is coming up white on a white background. I can't find what is
making the color declaration not work. I'd be grateful for any assistance.
The site is here: http://168.156.9.250/WELA/
The issue is found on the drop down menus (for example, under About WELA).
Below is the css for that element. I can make other tweeks such as changing the padding and the effect is immediately seen, but
I can't get that color to behave. The ONLY way I could get it black was to put the style inline on the <li> like this:
<li ><a href="test.htm" style="color:Black!important;">Academy Overview</a></li>
.dropdown-menu > li > a {
display: block;
padding: 3px 20px;
clear: both;
font-weight: normal;
line-height: 20px;
color: #333333!important;
white-space: nowrap;
}
It is located in the bootstrap.css file at line 4820. You can see from my
declaration, that using !important didn't get it to work. I don't find anything
in the cascade of style sheets that overwrites it, not is there anything inline.
a, .nav-collapse .dropdown-menu a {color: White !important;}
