    Hello everyone,

    First I’d like to say, I’m new to all this stuff so I’m kinda what you could call a newbie 🙂

    But I had a question about adding borders to for example the body of a page. If you take a look at the site I made (with help of others ofc), I would like to add a vertical border between the body and the right side bar on the following page http://www.dso-alkmaar.nl/over-dso.

    What I would like to do it to create the illusion that the body is slightly higher then the right side bar. This like on the following site http://www.vi.nl/.

    If there is anyone who could help me out, it would be very much appreciated!

    Frank

    It looks like javacript and ‘Fancybox

    Remember though that some visitors could have Javascript turned off.

    Oh oke, I thought it was something ‘simple’ as adding a code.
    But in that case I guess I have to figure out some other way, because I’m not familiar with javascript or Fancybox 🙂

    lol neither am I, if I find out I will update.

    I know one or two .nl people. The site is .nl domain.

    If you ever need to know about a site and your on F.F then down load Firebug.

    Firefox

    In F.F tools right click web developer -> page source.

    Just put in an address in Redhat

    Colors<a/>

    Finds all the colors on a Web Site.

    To achieve something similar to that you would need to add both a border, and a box-shadow to the .span8 div

    something like this should be a great starting point for you:

    .span8 { box-shadow: 3px 1px 1px #d1d1d1; }

    If you are working off of a theme you have downloaded I would recommend creating a child theme, and adding that to your child theme CSS file.

    Otherwise add it to your themes main css file.

    Thanks for the tips Julienne, I’ll go take a look at that!
    And thank you to Evan, I’ll give that code a try.

    I’ll keep you updated! 😀
