jQuery Forum

I did something like this quite a while ago, so the details are gone, but the general idea is as follows.  Use Firefox to step through the Accordion code, and look closely at the HTML detailed information. Somewhere in there, you will see the exact color "number" of every bit of Accordion on your page. Sorry, I can't remember more details.

I don't know DW, but couldn't you open your code with Notepad++ and change the relevant CSS for the background?

Mike, thanks for your answer. Your suggestion isn't clear to me - I guess you mean hex (#......) codes when you say color number. Thats certainly what I would like to edit.

I am new to this thing too, but what I have found so far are three alternative solutions (of which I haven't used yet):

1) Edit css overriding the Jquery UI styles. (maybe by using " !important " or make your selectors more specific)
To do this you need to find the names of the classes or ids with Firebug

2) Use ThemeRoller (you can find it in jqery ui, google it)
I think it is the most easy solution, but I don't like it as I prefer styling my own, not relying in someone else's style interface..

3) Remove existing class and add your own. I don't know how, just google it if you are interested, but I feel it is more difficult.


It is a pity that a so large community don't help each other, I see only few replies inside this forum and I cannot understand what 31 (online at this moment) moderators are doing..
