I am branding the CSS file for the mysite areas on a portal
implemenation and have run into a little problem. For some reason I
am having trouble getting the color of the ms-searchbox area to
change colors. I have rebranded this on the portal but for some
reason the owspers.css is being a pain in the rear.

I have changed the css to the following in owspers.css but the color
is NOT changing on the advanced search bar...

.ms-searchbox {
background-color: white;
font-family: verdana;
font-size: 8pt;
}
.ms-searchform {
background-color: #c6cfe5;
font-family: verdana;
font-size: 8pt;
}
.ms-searchcorner {
background-color: #c6cfe5;
/* background-image: url("/_layouts/images/srchcrnr.gif"); */
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: left top;
}

If you will notice I commented out the searchcorner's corner image
but it is still showing up. Maybe I am overriding/editing the wrong
classes? anyhow any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
