Turns out the guys before me had added a secondary CSS file that
contained:
ToolTip
{
color: #000000;
font-weight: bold;
}
Took that out and the color style from my CSS worked. Just fyi, I
decided to use a borderSkin, instead of the stock styles, so that I'd
have a little more flexibility with gradiant fills, the border, and any
filters that might be desired.
Thanks again.,
