I'm working on a menu toolbar using bootstrap 3.1.1
So i create an example.

This is the example for my code.

<!DOCTYPE html>

    <title>Navbar Template for Bootstrap</title>

    <!-- Bootstrap core CSS -->
    <link href="http://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/twitter-bootstrap/3.1.1/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />

    <style type="text/css">
        
        body {
            background-color: #c2d7ce;
        }

        /* the style for Page Title Text*/
        .PageTitle {
            color: white;
            font-size: 30px;
            font-family: Arial;
            font-weight: bold;
            margin-left: 15px;
            margin-top: 2px;
            width: auto;
        }

        /*********** Bootstrap Overrides ***********/
        .navbar-default .navbar-nav > li > a:hover, .navbar-default .navbar-nav > li > a:focus {

            background-color: #030033; 
        }

        .navbar-default {

Open in new window

When I run it, it looks like this video: http://youtu.be/AsyXdfMa9wM

If you notice the toolbar background color is like a purpleish/blue color with this code #0f006f .
When I resize the browser window the bootstrap hamburger menu pops up on the toolbar.
Then if I click on the hamburger menu icon then the collapsible menu opens up and it has the same purpleish/blue background color as the header toolbar.

If you look at my code.. i'm setting the background color like this in my css.

.navbar-default {
background-color: #0f006f;
border-color: #030033;
}

But when I change it here seems it to apply it to both the header background and the collapsible menu background:

Right now when I click on the hamburger menu the collapsible menu that opens up looks like this:

Is there a way to revise it so the header toolbar is background-color: #0f006f; and the background of the collapsible toolbar is background-color: #c6c6c6;

So I want it to look like this:

Here is a fiddle of my current menu:

Anyone know how I can change that collapsible menu color to #c6c6c6 so it looks like the picture above?
