 * I need some help with my blog at [http://www.san-francisco-personal-injury-attorney.org/](http://www.san-francisco-personal-injury-attorney.org/).
   I am modifying the file(s) directly using FTP.
 * I am trying to create a 7 px border that encompasses both of the white content
   areas down to the footer. I’m trying to do this via modifying the file(s) directly,
   but I cannot figure out how.
 * It looks as though the footer and the content area don’t match up, as far as 
   width is concerned, and I modified the header and the footer through the CSS 
   file to be 940px, but I’m not sure where to find the width of the content. I’m
   just worried that if they aren’t all the same then the border won’t be flush 
   against all of them.
 * Thank you for your help!

 * It looks like you need to change the width of the footer in the style sheet. 
   Then add the border to the “wrap” div, making sure the footer falls within the
   wrap, which it looks like it does.
