How do I Change the BG Color of These White Boxes

I am wondering how to change the color of the white box that first appears when clicking on the categories and the one in the Basket.

I am referring to the boxes that currently say "There are no products to list in this category." and "Your shopping cart is empty!"

Thanks,
Much Appreciated

Hey Gnome,

Those have to changed directly in the template file.

IE. catalog/view/theme/theme name/template/

The tpl files under that directory.

Remove the background reference and color code found in "<div style="background: "

Kevin.

in the case of the cart page its catalog/view/theme/default/template/checkout/cart.tpl

I have looked around in the cart.tpl but still can't find the necessary background color to change. Here is the URL of the page with the box I want to change and the tpl file
.

<div class="top">

BTW, we can not view your website very well when you have the base url set in the config file as http://localhost/. If you want us to view it the way you see it, you will have to edit your config file so that the base url is http://69.11.31.41/.
This is what provides you with the message that your cart is empty. It has its own background color set in yourtemplate/stylesheet/stylesheet.css. - Around line 178.

.warning {
padding: 5px 0px;
margin-bottom: 10px;
background: #FFDFE0;
border: 1px solid #FF9999;
font-size: 11px;
font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;
text-align: center;
}

Also, class 'cart' has a background color in yourtemplate/stylesheet/stylesheet.css - but only on the table header - found around line 377.

.cart {
border-collapse: collapse;
margin-bottom: 10px;
width: 100%;
border: 1px solid #EEEEEE;
}
.cart th {
background: #EEEEEE;
padding: 5px;
font-weight: normal;
}
.cart td {
padding: 5px;
}

Sweet, I got it working. I found the particular portion I wanted to change in not_found.tpl template/error/not-found.tpl. Thanks for all the help and reminding me to change localhost to the IP address. I forgot to change it after I re-installed the cart.
