Admin Forum:A few monobook questions

I've got a few MonoBook questions that I would like to ask:



1. Major Tools
Here at Central, I've noticed using the MonoBook version the few links just above the main article (circled in the image) has a green border with border radius and also turns green during hover. What CSS are used for that, I can't find anything similar to that in MediaWiki:Monobook.css.

2. Background Linear
Why does Community Central using the Monobook version see a from dark blue fading to light blue background? Is it possible to put it on Isle of Tune Wiki? If so, then how?


 * The styles are in Monobook.css, you just have to know what to look for. Here are the styles that do what you're talking about, in no particular order:

background-color: #FFFFFF; border-color: #88c440; border-width: 2px 2px 0; -moz-border-radius: 10px 10px 0 0; -webkit-border-radius: 10px 10px 0 0; -o-border-radius: 10px 10px 0 0; -khtml-border-radius: 10px 10px 0 0; border-radius: 10px 10px 0 0; }
 * 1) p-cactions li {

background-color: #FFFFFF; color: #000000; -moz-border-radius: 10px 10px 0 0; -webkit-border-radius: 10px 10px 0 0; -o-border-radius: 10px 10px 0 0; -khtml-border-radius: 10px 10px 0 0; border-radius: 10px 10px 0 0; }
 * 1) p-cactions li a {

background-color: transparent; color: #88c440; text-decoration: underline; }
 * 1) p-cactions li a:hover {


 * In the regard of the background, Wikia actually uses a 1px x 1200px image for the gradient and just repeats it all the way across the page. That's quite an inefficient way of doing things. I'd suggest just using a CSS gradient to do it. I'm not going to explain them here because they're a bit complicated, but there's a good article over here that explains them. — Matthew2602 (talk) 09:16, June 22, 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks, but how do I actually select the outside part? Also, is it possible to make it fixed?
 * The outside part of what? And make what fixed? The background? — Matthew2602 (talk) 09:59, June 22, 2012 (UTC)


 * Sorry that I didn't explain it clearly &mdash; I was asking what CSS selector can be used to select the background, and is it possible to make it position: fixed
 * The background is just controlled with the body tag, as it is on most websites. You can't use position:fixed on the background, because it isn't it's own element, but you can use  instead. — Matthew2602 (talk) 11:50, June 22, 2012 (UTC)

I did But it didn't work. What was wrong with it?
