    Ugh! I’m such a jerk. Thank you so much. I actually did do that #header #footer but I must have put it in the wrong place repeatedly.

    What a simple thing in the end! Thank you again. It’s very much appreciated.

    Yes, I understand what you meant. What I meant was that while firebug does in fact “isolate” one line of code, it doesn’t really do anything else for me but lists like 5 different stylesheets with no indication of what is controlling what. Like I said, the mentions of background color change the entire page, not just the header, footer, or body. In fact, style.css isn’t even one of those sheets it lists.

    Yes, I’ve got firebug installed and it’s still no help oddly. It doesn’t really “isolate” anything.

    In addition to the header, footer, and body colors I’d also like to change the color and text in the menu.

    Yep, I understand how it works and have read all that.

    None of these readings adequately explain at all how to change these basic things. I want to change header background color, body background color, and footer background color and you’d think this would be a snap but the reality of it is it’s just not. I have changed every single background tag over and over again wherever it appears and the only one that ever changes anything is the tag in the reset.css stylesheet, and even then, changing that actually just changes the entire background on the entire page.

    Isn’t there some guide that says, specifically, like this:

    To change the header color, go to the following locations: xyz and do this: xyz

    and so on?

    Thanks.
