so all I'm trying to do is to be modify the menu (root) item to be "transparent" on background color.  I got it to work, almost.  The only thing is NOT working is that when the mouse moves "out" of the menu (or if it moves to the sub items, child items), the "root" item goes back to "black", how can I make that "transparent" too?

here are my css code:

       .RadMenu_Glow .rmRootGroup
        {
            background: Transparent !important;
            border-left-style: none !important;
            border-left-color: transparent !important;
            border-left-width: 0px;
            border-right-style: none !important;
            border-right-color: transparent !important;
            border-right-width: 0px;
            border-top-style: none !important;
            border-top-color: transparent !important;
            border-top-width: 0px;
            border-bottom-style: none !important;
            border-bottom-color: transparent !important;
            border-bottom-width: 0px;            
            box-shadow: none !important;
        }    
        
                  

        .RadMenu_Glow .rmLink:hover, 
        .RadMenu_Glow .rmFocused, .rmLink 
        .RadMenu_Glow .rmSelected 
        { 
            background-color: transparent !important; 
            background-image: none !important; 
            background-position: 0px 0px !important; 
        } 
        .RadMenu_Glow .rmText 
        { 
            background-image: none !important; 
            background-color: transparent !important; 
        }
