[SOLVED] Background colour of blockquotes and forms wont change...

Hi there,

I am trying to get rid of the standard grey ish colour that seems to be in the background of all block quotes and forms...I have gone in to style forms and style blockquotes and changed all the background color's in each field, but it hasnt made any difference to them at all?

Is there someting else default I need to change first to allow me to change each field color individually or should these be changing color just from doing the above?
