Styling Facebook Likebox

Is there a way to style the facebook likebox without a plugin? I have my likebox on a darkish background and the blue link that says my facebook pages name is not blending well, I would like to change all the text colors inside the likebox, do I have to do this with javascript?

Is it not in the TnC's of Facebook not to change the colours of the boxes. I'm sure it says somewhere you must use it on a white background if the case is similar to yours?

I suggest not to change the style of the facebook plugins for two reasons:

  1. It's what the users are used to, it's what they search for if they want to like the page, that blue like button/box. If you change it users might just miss it.

  2. Facebook change things, quite frequently, if you hack their style you'll need to constantly keep track of their changes so that the box still looks good.

You can use the HTML5 implementation and then style using css. Pure css would be better than the iframe method, where you would have to inject css into the iframe. It would be better though to write your own javascript code that way you can control the entire box and not just text colors. If you need help with any of this, just post where your at, at the moment.
