Guys, I think I sorted it myself. I downloaded the css file from the plug-ins folder, and pasted everything on it into my child theme css file and am able to change it. Nothing’s exploded yet anyway!!
One more question folks, I want to have a nice, funky little border around the shortcode just like you have on your page. Again, being new to this worpress malarkey, I’m a bit lost. I took out the comments in the css before & after the border line in collapse-omatic rule, but it didn’t really work very well. I could probably live without it but it looks nice!

Hey Ray,
Glad you got so far on your own steam! As far as your question about the border goes:
When you say:
I want to have a nice, funky little border around the shortcode just like you have on your page.
Can you be more specific? Please paste a URL to the page you are referring to.
Do you want to place a border around a) the trigger, b) the target, c) both?

Obviously its still a work very much in progress. I’d like the border to surround both the trigger and content. Thanks for the reply and the neat plug in. A lot of this wordpress stuff leaves me a little cold, but I’ll get to grips with it over time.

All you need to do is:
1. wrap your expand elements in a div and assign it a unique class:
<div class="my_class">[expand title="..."]...[/expand]</div>
2. define your unique class either in your theme’s css or in the Collapse-O-Matic Options Page under Dashboard > Settings > Collapse-O-Matic > Custom CSS:
.my_class {
border: 1px dashed #cccc66;
}
Baden, absolutely first class! Worked like a charm! Many thanks indeed!!
