[SOLVED] How to put color on the right and left side of the menu bar? (the whole colo

1) I entered the same color # both in Background color and Parent background color at ATO>Page Menu Bar, but still there are white bars/space on the left and right of the menu.
I tried and put :
ul.rMenu
{
background: #CABB3D;
}
in the ATO>CSS Inserts. But it didn't work.

2) How do I eliminate a gray outer box all around the menu bar? (I entered "Border around all menu items" to be yellow which divides menu buttons. I like that as is.)

3) How do I make menu text Bold? I'd like to make the font smaller (12 px) and bold. For now the font is larger (13 px) and not bold (as a compromise).
