    I have a top and bottom border to my top navigation
    I want to have space to the left and right of these.

    But when i add border, the white menu bg changes to the body bg.
    Any ideas?
    Right now there`s example here

    Hi,

    You need to edit the style.css file of your theme and edit the header left, right, top and bottom padding margin code according to your requirement.

    Thanks,

    #navigation  {
	background:#fff url(img/toppmenybakgrunn.gi) ;

        font-weight:none;
        border-top:1px solid #aeb1a3;

        border-bottom:1px solid #aeb1a3;
margin-left:4px;

}

    pushes your menu in at the left 4px, which makes the green bg colour show through there. Are you referring to that?

    Yes
    How can I make only the borders have margin?

    i’m not quite sure what you mean? you want some white space, and then a border on the left? or just some white space?

    using padding-left instead of margin-left will extend the white space rather than show green……

    I have tried padding too

    I want space between the container (body) border and the menu borders

    I just noticed, you have styling to the li elements for menus, but not to menus itself

    try

    #menus {
    background: #fff;
 }

    to get the white background all across? Then you can mess with margin/border

    #menus {
    background:#fff;

    margin-left:7px;
    margin-right:7px;
    border-bottom:1px solid #aeb1a3;

    The border-bottom is above the menu?????
    How can I add a border beneath the menu….
