Hello; I am using the latest version of Firefox, under F14 fully
updated and
KDE. What I would like to know is how to heighten the contrast of the drop
down menu. E.g. - bookmarks, the one under the cursor is very low contrast.
Normal is black on white, under the mouse cursor changes to white on light
grey - so it becomes invisible.
I have changed themes and skins to no avail.
i believe what you are asking about is covered in these files;
/home/[username]/.mozilla/firefox/????????3.default/chrome/userChrome.css
/home/[username]/.mozilla/firefox/????????3.default/chrome/userContent.css
use these links to see how these files are used;

http://www-archive.mozilla.org/unix/customizing.html

http://www-archive.mozilla.org/docs/end-user/keywords.html
also, have a look at;
http://www.tweakguides.com/Firefox_1.html
be sure to check links in these pages.
you may not find an _exact_ example, but this should give you some bearing
as to what needs to be changed.
you could also use an 'add-on', but i suggest you you them as last resort
as they add 'bloat' and can be more of a problem than an advantage.
hth. if not, post back.
