problem/reporting drop menu appears black

[Pentarix]

The menu is black, including the text which is only visible once I mouse over and it highlights white (as seen here). I've deleted my css file and used the default one, at which time the menu appears fine, then slowing going through the entire original css, I copy and pasted the colors I'm using over into the original css file. By the time I'm done, the menu goes black again and despite rechecking it, I can't find what's causing it.

Has anyone else had a problem like this?

Anyone have any ideas about what I can do to fix this? It's getting annoying now.

Hi Pentarix,

The css in your news-details select has the background set to #000 which is black.

.news-details select {
background: #000;
border: 1px none #F5F8FF;
font-size: 85%;
}

Change this to #fff white or some other colour that you want.

I suck

Thank you so much!!

btw, just wondering while I'm on the topic, has anyone got this menu to work on the front page yet? It shouldn't be that hard and I haven't tried but if someone already had it would be helpful. If not, I'll post the info here after I do it.
