[Solved] Increasing font size in Categories box

[GMM148]

Hi, I want to increase the size of the Categories section on Front Page - both of the header 'Categories' and the actual categories, see attached screen shot, top left bit. Being new to CSS I know that the relevant text is out themes/global/css as below:

 

#categories_block_left  li {border-bottom:1px dotted #ccc}
    #categories_block_left  li.last {    border:none;}
        #categories_block_left  li a {
            display:block;
            padding:14px 22px 10px 22px;
            color:#333;
            background:url(../../../modules/blockcategories/img/arrow_right_2.png) no-repeat 10px 10px transparent

 

 

Wisdom on how what I need to edit to increase the text and insert bold into the actual categories would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

 

Giles

To change category voices layout try this:

 #categories_block_left  li a {

            display:block;
            padding:14px 22px 10px 22px;

            font-size: .....px; --> here you can set the size

            font-weight: bold;
            color:#333; ----> here you can change the color, if you want....with hexadecimal code, see this http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_colors.asp
            background:url(../../../modules/blockcategories/img/arrow_right_2.png) no-repeat 10px 10px transparent
