Styling Twenty Eleven… child not working?

  • I’ve started restyling a Twenty Eleven install… created the child theme and it shows up in themes, but I can’t get rid of the border at the top of branding??? I’ve had this problem with thematic too. I add the custom style, save it and it doesn’t change… Some of the custom styles I’ve added in the child theme are working but some refuse to change. What’s causing that? I’ve even opened the files in Dreamweaver and changed them in the site as well… This is driving me nuts!

    #branding {
    border: none;
    }

    I am… I have this in the child theme.

    #branding {
    border: none;
    padding-bottom: 10px;
    position: relative;
    z-index: 9999;

    }

    Try using
    #branding {border-top:none;}

    This is crazy… I’ve tried every variation, but the border remains. Could there be something wrong with the child theme? This is the header for child theme… In the /themes/nodandrose_theme/style.css I had the same problem with Thematic. Can;t figure out what I’m doing wrong??? Arghh.

    /*
    Theme Name: nodandrose_theme
    Description: Child theme for the twentyeleven theme
    Author: NodandRose
    Template: twentyeleven
    */
    @import url(“../twentyeleven/style.css”);

    Hmmm… I had Twenty Eleven theme tools loaded. Went into custom css and added the style and it worked. Not sure if that is overriding my child theme or what? I tried chaning the background color for the #access div as well, and that wouldn’t work either, but it’s a custom setting in Twenty Eleven theme tools?
