Chrome theme: how do I change the text color of a URL when I hover over a link on a web page?

Question

I am very new to developing Chrome themes. Everything went well, but when I hover over the link, the URL displayed at the bottom left is not readable due to the font color! How to change font color?

Answer 1

The color of the status bar is inferred from the color of the toolbar , and the color of its text is from tab_text . Well, that was in Chrome 6, but Im pretty sure that one color comes from a different color and still it doesn't matter. Take a look at an old document that lists these things ....

... as I said, I did not update it in age (Chrome 6), but these things should still be the same.

Answer 2

Here is the updated answer:

I found that some themes created in Chrome apps like the My Chrome theme create JSON for the toolbar. By default, it gives transparency, for example: "toolbar":[228,228,228, 0.6],

You need to delete the last number, which is alpha. So it looks something like this: "toolbar":[228,228,228],

Now it works great. Enjoy it!

Answer 3

Add color to the <a> tag in CSS or inline style.

a {color: # FF0000; text-decoration: none; }

  a:hover { color:#00FF00; text-decoration:none; cursor:pointer; }
