 * I am trying to change the background color of the twitter widget. I have tried
   targeting it with ‘div.twtr-doc’ and with ‘#twtr-widget-1 .twtr-doc, #twtr-widget-
   1 .twtr-hd a, #twtr-widget-1 h3, #twtr-widget-1 h4’
 * I must be doing something wrong because I can’t get the background color to change
   or the font within. Thanks for any help.

 * Use these CSS selectors `#twtr-widget-1 .twtr-doc, #twtr-widget-1 .twtr-hd a,#
   twtr-widget-1 h3, #twtr-widget-1 h4`
 * E.g
 *     ```
       #twtr-widget-1 .twtr-doc, #twtr-widget-1 .twtr-hd a, #twtr-widget-1 h3, #twtr-widget-1 h4 {
        background-color: #fff;
        color: #000;
       }
       ```

 * you have to some changes in your theme template where you add the twitter scripting:
 *     ```
       <script type="text/javascript">
       				new TWTR.Widget( {
                                               rrp : 5,
                                               theme : {
                                               shell : {
                                               background : "red", //change the background color & color according your need
                                               color : "#ab7373"
                                               },
                                               tweets : {
                                               background : "green", //change the background color & color according your need
                                               color : "#d41616",
                                               links : "#f9b3ee"
                                               }
                                               },
                                               width : "auto",

                                               },
