I suggest you to read http://www.yiiframework.com/doc/guide/, you will get more clear image of Yii framework.

You can find layout file: views/layouts/main.php(eventually you would need to modify column1.php and column2.php files too, in same folder)

I think you have to take little tour of yii-framework site as specially its guide and forum … .

You’ll find the layouts under protected/views/layouts. The CSS scripts are under css at the same level as protected.

In css/main.css there are some rules for #mainmenu, edit them.

@tad

I suppose you think about CGridView… check this thread - http://www.yiiframework.com/forum/index.php?/topic/21802-cgridview-header-row-color/

I would suggest you to spend some time learning the basics of Yii… you will get better help if you post understandable questions…
