How to find color code

Post by pslane » Thu Jul 24, 2014 1:48 am

I am trying to change the color of my main menu items. I know the current color is #666666. Is there an easier way to find this without looking through all the css files ( and getting all bug-eyed) until you finally find it? Please tell me if there is.

Thanks,
pslane

Right click "Inspect Element" and you will find the css rule in the right panel

Google for something like: How I use developer toolbar to find css rules?
Or post a link to your site, so that somebody else can tell you the css rule to edit.

edit: glad you found it
