CSS is not allowing me to see text

[kerrylhanley]

It is almost impossible to edit text on this website http://www.seniorlifegcm.com because snippetmaster WYSIWYG is showing the black background, but not the yellow background behind the text. Both are coded in css, but only one is being displayed. That means the user is trying to edit black text on a black background.

Any solutions??

Thanks,
Kerry

You can change the editor background with info found here:

Let me know how that goes.  I will be adding the ability to dynamically change the editor background color in an upcoming release, but it will be a few months before it's ready.

Nope, that did not work. I can provide admin login info if it would help to see for yourself.

Can you send it to henri @ www.snippetmaster.com along with a link to this forum thread?

Thanks.

I should mention I am using Firefox 3.0. I just tried this in IE and the css workaround works fine in that browser.

I should mention I am using Firefox 3.0.

FireFox caches the css files, so you have to clear the cache to see any css changes. I have a little script set as a bookmark which does this for me. Create a new bookmark and put the following code into the properties box:

Code:

javascript:void(function(){var%20i,a,s;a=document.getElementsByTagName('link');for(i=0;i<a.length;i++){s=a[i];if(s.rel.toLowerCase().indexOf('stylesheet')>=0&&s.href)%20{var%20h=s.href.replace(/(&|%5C?)forceReload=d+/,'');s.href=h+(h.indexOf('?')>=0?'&':'?')+'forceReload='+(new%20Date().valueOf())}}})();

This just clears cached stylesheets and does not affect other files.

Hope this helps.

That is very cool. Worked a treat! Thanks!
