   Been going around in circles for about three hours now, I have searched the forum and also the docs for the answer but to no avail so thought I would see if anyone can help.

   I have taken the default theme and removed all images and I am "playing around" with the CSS, finding out what does what before developing my new site theme. I am reasonably experienced in CSS having developed several sites in the past, but have been "out of it" for a couple of years so am a little rusty.

   I am trying to change the background colour of the #page div but can not do so.

   #page {
   	background: white;
   	border: 1px solid #FF0033;
   	text-align: left;
   	}

   I have tried all of the usual fault finding techniques but still can not resolve this. What am I missing?

   Any help is much appreciated.

   #page {
   	background-color: #fff!important;
   	border: 1px solid #f03;
   	text-align: left;
   	}

   That work?

   It certainly does t31os!

   I had forgotten about the !important rule and had been messing around with z-index instead. Like I said, a little rusty!

   Embarrassed at having to post, but thanks for your help!

   I have the same problem and !important doesn't do it for me.
   I checked the css using FireBug and somehow another #page is generated in the header. I removed all the lines to test and that kubrickbg-ltr.jpg background is still there.
   FireBug addresses it as ;
   

   #page  {
   background:url("http://gumbetbeachresort.com/wp-content/themes/GBR_theme/images/kubrickbg-ltr.jpg") repeat-y scroll center top transparent;
   border:medium none;

   and this is strangely in gumbetbeachresort.com(which is my url) and not stylesheet.css
