Support Forum

Every time that you post a problem, PLEASE add the Joomla and the extension's versions and revisions (for example: Joomla 3.3.6, Contact Enhanced 3.3.5), PHP version and Server's Operating System. If you only manage only one site it is easier if you edit your profile and just add that information to your signature. Don't forget to add a detailed description of the problem. If possible, write down all steps to simulate the problem.

Before submitting a new post, PLEASE make sure you are running the latest version, test in different browsers (IE, FF, Chrome,..) and clear Joomla and browser's cache after every change you make.

Also, most questions are already answered in our FAQ and in iFAQ and Contact Enhanced documentation pages.

background style for fields

I am sure it's something real simple, but how can I change from the white background of the fields to another #...... color. I don't see it in the CSS.

Dear boomshot,

It is simple indeed! ;-)

Ajax Contact tried to inherit most of the styling from your template file, so you can change the inputbox rule in your template's CSS file,, or

1- Open Ajax Contact's CSS file [Joomla]/modules/mod_ajax_contact/css/style.css
2- Add this property:
.ac-cf-container .inputbox{background-color:#F0F0F0}

font-size: 11px;
border: 1px solid #000;
background:#3D4C42;
height:25px;
width:70px;
padding:5px;
}

input.button:hover {
color: #3D4C42;
font-size: 11px;
border: 1px solid #000;
background:#3D4C42;

Dear Boomshot,

I've just modified using FireBug and it worked.
Find:
#ajaxcontact input.inputbox{width:95%}
and change for:
#ajaxcontact input.inputbox{background-color:#DDD;width:95%}

I'll send you a new version with the language fix also.

Best regards,

What exactly do you want to achieve?

Dear boomshot,

Well, if you know your way around CSS you can create many CSS rules. I just don't create them because there are so many possibilities and not everyone needs them. I also want to make the file smaller in order to improve performance.

FireBug < getfirebug.com > might help you to create more CSS rules in order to accomplish what you want.

You can control the CSS using the classes and IDs that I've added to almost all HTML elements in the form.

Warm regards,
