# Modifying a theme .php "custom_css"

 * I am making tweaks to my theme that I purchased (using a Child Theme) and I was
   able to make a change to a piece of code in a css file by using a specific selector“
   html .logo_sect {” instead of just “.logo_sect {“
 * Now I would like to change a line of code in a .php file called “css-js.php”
   
   The line is 163 and looks like this: [http://s27.postimg.org/evs1dl1yr/Untitled_1.jpg](http://s27.postimg.org/evs1dl1yr/Untitled_1.jpg)
 * I tried adding this to my style sheet, but it didn’t work. Is there something
   different I need to do because this is a .php file or because it is a css generated
   from the .php file?
 *     ```
       html .main_header {
       		background:rgba(' #ffffff ',0.85);
       		border-bottom:#' . $header_border . ' 1px solid;
       }
       ```

 * hmmmm, I also tried making the change directly in the main theme css-js.php file
   and it didn’t change things
