I can't seem to change the color of the text input area in tinymce. Right now its a dark color and text is slightly less dark.. extremely annoying

the background color button or text color button on the toolbar doesn't change the color at all. I looked in the CSS and it has this

Code: Select all

.mceEditorArea {
	font-family: "MS Sans Serif";
	background: #FFFFFF;
}

the background color is white in the CSS
Any help.

I think tinyMCE has several CSS files it uses. Also Serendipity assigns the Stylesheet of your Blog to the content area as to easier preview it.

As Serendipity uses ".serendipity_body" and other classes for showing it, those might not be defined in your frontend Stylesheet.

Try to change the background color of the body element of your frontend stylesheet temporarily and see if it affects the output. If it does you might need to push around some elements in the frontend stylesheet so that it matches on TinyMCE.

I haven'T looked exactly at how the editor draws its elements from and which element needs to be changed. Maybe you can see if you achieve something, and if you fail, I'll try to help you?
