Custom Theme Support - CoD4 Firefox issue

Hi,
I recently purchased the CoD4 phpnuke theme for my site http://www.guildexalted.com and I'm having a couple of issues.

1) On the forums, firefox users default font is set to white and the background is set to white. They can't see what they're typing basically. IE works just fine with black text on white background.

Where can I change the values to make this work so that I have a black background with white default text for any browser while creating a new post?

2) The post summary below any post you reply to has the font set to black and the backgroun is dark gray. Makes it very hard to read if you're replying to a post.

Is there any way I can change that font setting to display as white?

3) On the main page, I would like to change the default buttons to point to a page outside of the modules. I found the html, changed the psd and the button "points" to the page, yet it still displays the previous "statistics" section in the center of the page.

I'm guessing there is a .php file somewhere I have to edit as well? How can I edit a button's link from the top menu and have it open a new page or module?

Thanks in advance for any assistance!

For the forums edit themes/DMcod4/forums/forums.css and put this line at the very bottom

textarea.post {color:#000000;font-size:10px;}

As for the links, there are 3 files that the button links have to be changed in
theme.html
theme2.html and forums.html
Theme.html is the main page template.
Theme2.html is for every other page except the forums.
forums.html is for the forums only.

Also to have a link open in a new window add target="_blank" to the URL.

For example

Code:

<a href="index.php" target="_blank">Link Here</a>

I am having the same problem, however I am using PNphpbb. Do I just do the same except add it to the style.css?

Thx

Slightly different for the PostNuke PNphpBB2 version

Add this to the very bottom of DMcod4.css
Code:

input.post,textarea.post,select {color:#000;font-size:12px;}

Hi,
I recently purchased the CoD4 phpnuke theme for my site http://ftwsquad.com and I'm having a couple of issues ALSO:

One is that I only got 1 psd file of the whole header...I didn't get any individual 'button' psd to change buttons (names, ect.) Maybe I am not thinking this one threw but how do I change button names?

The other issue is that NO 'MESSAGES' show up in the center when the COD4 theme is engaged.....only 'NEWS' results show up, but not "MESSAGES".....messages are there till I activate the COD4 theme, then they disappear?

What version of Photoshop are you using?
The button text should be seperate layers for editing.

As for the messages, you should create Center-Up blocks instead of admin messages, that way you can use HTML and they will be themed as blocks instead of just messages.

photoshop7

and I have center-up blocks...they don't show either?? Is something configured wrong?

the problem with the psd is that i can change button text, but the button images are not one separate layers....they're all on the same background as the whole header....it's all one background.
I would have to know where to 'crop' the buttons to make them separate.

They are sliced, the problem is the PSD is Photoshop CS2
The slices won't go back that far on versions.

As for the center blocks, can you create me a temporary admin account so I can see what the settings you have set are?
