blockquote style not working?

[tizdaz]

hi guys im trying to change the background colour of quoted text in posts, im editing this code in global.css for my theme:

blockquote {
	border: 1px solid #f5f5f5;
	margin: 0;
	background: #ffffff;
	padding: 4px;

but its not working no matter what i change the background colour to, any ideas because at the moment it is same colour as post background! ?

---

also when i click on New Reply its doing it as a quote & not blank as it should?, ok seems like was an issue with cookies so the this bit is ok, just stuck on the background colour of quote its self when posted ?

---

so no one knows how to change the background of quotes in posts :s ?

---

guess this is a bug then because ive even tried it on default forum settings still the same :o

You're doing it right, perhaps you're just viewing a cached version?

Try hitting Ctrl+F5 or clearing your browser cache.

It's not a bug.

nah tried it on 2 different systems & a few browsers on both :/

in the end i used files off my backup host where i have a duplicate of my live forum which i only use for testing so just copied all files over & it fixed it.
