Are the commands and object references in the userChrome.css files the

I just updated to SM v2.0.8 from 1.1.19, and everything appears to
have
been migrated from the old to new profiles, including the old chrome
folder and contents. However, the view in the mail window I expect
hasn't made the change.
What I want is a non-white background for the mail folder and message
list (thread) panes. The previous SM setup had a pale green background
(color code #c5e2e2), but those settings aren't being picked up in
SM2.
Duirng my searches for a solution, I've seen many different
examples of
code suggested, usually to change fonts, but the structure of the code
in a lot of those examples has varied enough that I'm not happy with
making lots of arbitrary changes on my own just to see what happens.
There is a tool available called ChromEdit Plus, but it won't install
under SM 2.0.8 (compatibility error.) Some articles from the Moz pages
which talk about this sort of thing are 6 years old, and those
suggestions aren't working in my case.
Any suggestions?
Disregard. I spent another couple of hours searching, reading, going
blind on repeat links to the same places, etc., and finally stumbled on
one solution which worked. Now I just gotta decide which color hex code
I prefer.
....and the solution was................??
(for the benefit of others here that might want similar function.)

Pasting the following into the userChrome.css file:
/* Folder and Message panes (color, very light green, c5e2e2) */
treechildren {
background-color: #c6e3e3 !important;
}
It does turn the mail folder and message thread panes background color
green, but there's an unexpected side effect with the browser as well
(to do with the location bar background color, but only under certain
conditions.) Not what I wanted, but I haven't the time to learn enough
about CSS code to sort it out right now. Cisco training takes up a lot
of time.
Thanks for posting that, Rickles. As for the location bar, have you
heard that web site security levels are now being displayed with the
background colour for the location bar.
Not sure of which version of SM 2.x this started in.

Yeah, I'm already aware of the yellow-ish color change when you're at a
secure (SSL) site. What I referred to is in the drop-down for the
location bar.
If I use the drop-down history of the location bar to select a
prior-visited site, everything stays as it should be, color-wise. Now,
however, when I start typing anything manually into the location bar
address field, the drop-down which appears has the same color background
as the panes in Mail. The address field background is always white,
throughout (unless I'm at an SSL site). Not what I expected, and it
doesn't seem to affect anything else about the Browser views or
behavior, but I'd sort of rather not have it happen.
So, if I manually select to view the history drop-down of the location
bar, the background stays white. If SM invokes the drop-down because
I'm typing and it tries to autocomplete, the background is green. If I
remove the change from userChrome.css so that the mail panes are white,
so now is the location drop-down.
Oh, by the way, the color hex string in the first line of my paste
previously doesn't match the in-use hex string in the line of code. I
changed to a slightly lighter shade after the first working test, and
didnt't change the comment. The 'c6e3e3' is the in-use value.
