Thanks very much Eric… Unfortunately it didn’t make any difference.
I have tried to use this code on your site http://demo.appfinite.com/epik/ and it worked (I am assuming that your site is set on default). But if you change Theme Color it doesn’t work. That’s probably because your site is still set on default in genesis panel and I am changing the Theme Colour externally. I am using Firebug.
But on my site it doesn’t work on any Theme Color including default. I have even copied your complete stylesheet and replaced it on my site and included .home {background: #aaa;}… it didn’t make any difference. So the problem seems not to be with my stylesheet. Somehow it seems it’s something to do with Theme Color… but I just can’t figure out.
I also noticed when I switch to any Theme Color except default the menu links don’t react to hover and don’t change color when clicked. That happens on your site too.
Regards
Mike
