PhotoPost Community - change the background of the view and perpage selections

I want to change the background of the view and perpage selections on the category page

tried adding tddetails class to the section of cathead.tmpl here

Quote:

<td class="{$Style['menubar']}" colspan="$cols">
<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td width="25%" align="left" class="tddetails"><span class="{$Style['small']}">$pageind</span></td>
<td width="40%" align="center" class="tddetails"><span class="{$Style['small']}">$posternav</span></td>
<td width="35%" align="right" class="tddetails"><form name="tform" method="get" action="{$Globals['maindir']}/showgallery.php">
<span class="{$Style['small']}">
{$Globals['pp_lang']['viewtype']} <select onchange="submit();" name="thumbsonly" style="font-size: 9pt; background: #ffffff;">$views</select> 
PPPRINT;

it didnt work - that class works well lower in the page - im using white text and the text disappears in the background

code was

<td width="25%" align="left" class=""><span class="{$Style['small']}">$pageind</span></td>
