Hello,
This is the exact same issue someone else had just the other day, and
they were also a Joomla user. Your problem is figure out by selecting
the menu li element using Firebug. The Superfish background rule is
being overridden by the #pillmenu li li rule which is in the green.css
file. The reason this rule gets precedence over the Superfish CSS is
because it uses an id in the selector, which trumps the .sf-menu class
selector.
Interestingly, 'pillmenu' was the exact same id that was involved with
the other Joomla user's issue, so I assume it must be part of Joomla's
templates. Solve your problem by adding the id to your Superfish
selector in order to increase its 'specificity', like this:
#pillmenu .sf-menu li { background: #BDD2FF url('../images/
normal_bg.png') repeat-x 0 0; }
