 * Could some kind soul please tell me how to get rid of the table border on my 
   site, [http://www.broadwaterconservatories.co.uk/product-accreditations/](http://www.broadwaterconservatories.co.uk/product-accreditations/)
   as you will see there are lots of lines, they seem to be made up of tiny dots.
   below is the code for the main area of text, as you will see I have table border
   set to 0.
 * Regards
 * Phil.

 * They’re not table borders – they’re background images. Eg:
 *     ```
       #header-inner {
           background-image: url("images/dotted-horizontal.gif");
           background-position: center bottom;
           background-repeat: repeat-x;
           padding: 45px 0 20px;
       }
       ```

 * Hi esmi, thanks for the reply, could you help a bit more please, where will I
   find this code, and how do I get rid of the lines, do i just delete the reference
   to it?
 * Very new to all this stuff.
 * thanks.

 * The code I gave above is in your theme’s style.css file which you can access 
   via Appearance->Editor. You need to remove:
 *     ```
       background-image: url("images/dotted-horizontal.gif");
           background-position: center bottom;
           background-repeat: repeat-x;
       ```

 * Thanks, I have now by trial and error found by removing the
 * > background-image: url(“images/dotted-horizontal.gif”);
   >  background-position:
   > center bottom; background-repeat: repeat-x;
 *  i have eliminated some of the lines, the vertical one still eludes me though,
   as do the faint borders around the tables.
 * Further assistance would be most appreciated.

 * esmi, you are an absolute star, thanks.
 * Do you have any clues for the table borders, I am sure I have set them to 0, 
   and the border colour to #FFFFFF maybe I have missed something.
