ie9 issues

sorry folks i messed that up https://afterdarkwebpages.x10host.com and I promise not to hit the link button again. lol

#main-wrapper .widget li a,
h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
    text-shadow: none;
}

gets rid of the drop shadow (the white behind the black) in the sidebar and headings.

Could you explain better what you mean by the translucent colour issue?

As to the IE/Firefox issue, what are the differences? (I have FF, but not IE). Maybe post two screenshots somewhere and tell us what bothers you? (There will always be differences in browsers; not all are resolvable.)

@ElectricFeet- That worked Thank you. Tried it in my child themes stylesheet but it didn’t work there so I put it in the custom CSS and it worked perfectly.

I have a full screen background image but I had to make a RGBA color over it because the letters were hard to read but got that fixed except where I have my recent posts on the front page. The Title is big and dark enough but the snippet of words under that is to light and hard to read.

I was wanting to make a background-color: rgba(51, 153, 255, 0.1) color behind just that text or how I can bold type it and darker black and change the font type

I am at work now and just checked the site with IE9 and it’s fine (I don’t care for IE but there are folks out there that won’t switch). It must be an issue on my home computer.

Thank you again for you and the other forum members.

h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
    background-color: rgba(51, 153, 255, 0.1);
}

@electricfeet– Sorry I might not have explained it better. That works for the header (category) but I’m looking for the text under it to be the same way. https://afterdarkwebpages.x10host.com

p {
    background-color: rgba(51, 153, 255, 0.1);
}

Check out this link for how you can use firebug/developer tools to find these very quickly. A six-minute video that will open up a whole new world in CSS.

Again thank you. It worked perfectly (of course). I have not used firebug will go to the link and watch. This is my first time using wordpress and I like it and the support is excellent
