Hi,
I changed the background color for the nav in catch box on my site and it works fine in Chrome 30 and IE10 but not in IE 7-9. Is there anyway I can change the background for IE7-9?

@owen: I am not so sure what you have added in the CSS as I can see out blue color has been there in IE8. Maybe you can try adding in the following CSS for your color.

#branding #access, #colophon #access-footer {
    background: #0000ff;
}

@Sakin: I am not sure which css I have added to make the background color blue either. I added the css you suggested and it made no difference. I checked on netrenderer.com and on IE7-9 still don’t show the blue color just the defualt color.

@Sakin:I was mistaken. The css you suggested did the same as the previous css I used (Which I have now found out):

#branding #access, #colophon #access-footer {
	background: blue;
}

Although on netrenderer.com it says that on IE7-9 the color is still not showing!

@owen: Use color code not the color name and if that is not working then add important.

#branding #access, #colophon #access-footer {
    background-color: #0000ff !important;
}

@Sakin: I have found the css for the defualt color in catch box for IE. I changed it to:
filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr='#0000ff',endColorstr='#0000E6')}
Thanks!
