 * Hello all,
    I have read how this code in the css file will alter the appearance
   of the search button: #menu li form input{ background-color: #000000; color:#
   ffffff; } I would love to do the same for the submit comment button. I just can’t
   figure out how to go about it – it seems to work on a different princuple to 
   tyhe search button… (I know very little when it comes to php…) Much obliged in
   advance!

 * That button is not in the `#menu` div, which is why it’s not affected by your
   code above. Since you didn’t post a link to your site, I can’t be sure, but perhaps
   the comment form is in a div called `#comment` and you can then style it using`#
   comment li form input`.

 * I tried using #comment li (and postcomment) but I had no luck.
