Styling problems

This seems to happen every time I start a new ATA install; I have a bunch of CSS that's worked in the past, but I can't get these fixed on the current install... various oddball styling things that won't fix without a mess of fooling around. My usual tricks aren't working this time.

WP version 3.2.1, ATA version 3.7.1

Site: http://sameeskumn.com

Can't get the page background to appear;
Can't get rid of the gray dotted lines, or create a solid line around the pages menu;
Can't change the overall pages menu background color;
Can't make page menu Bold;
Can't get a background image to appear in bar1...

In CSS inserts, these things usually fix everything:

Code:

/* Page menu spacing */

ul.rMenu-hor li {

margin-right: 10px;

font-weight: bold !important;

}



/* Page menu background */



#menu1 { 

background: #042b4f !important;

letter-spacing:2px;

font-weight: bold !important;

border: 1px #042b4f !important;

}





/* no dotted lines menus

========================= */



.menu-pages-container {

border: 1px #042b4f !important;

font-weight: bold !important;

}



.horbar1 {

background: url(http://sameeskumn.com/wp-content/graphics/bar1.jpg);

}

In the past I've exported settings, deleted all ATA settings, and then re-imported - that's not fixing things either. Anyone having similar issues?

One thing I quickly see is you are trying to style the horbar in CSS Inserts instead of the styling box for the horbar in Style and edit Header area which will take precedence.

Also the 'border' is missing the type (solid, dashed etc) plus the class is not one used by the theme

I had it in the theme options **and** in the css after the options didn't work - played around with the background issues and got them working by combining some code; I'll keep on the borders issue - thanks!

where did you come up with the '.menu-pages-container ' class? it's not an Atahualpa menu class or the WordPressw menu class
