Brief CSS Detective Help. One Field I think!

**GeorgeB** · 06-02-2008, 11:01 AM

I've been racking my brain and I know I'm missing something simple!!

If you look at this URL: (http://www.thirtyspace.com/orca/topi...he-boards-.htm) the forum posts look fine except for some white around the post text itself.

Can anyone tell where in the CSS I can change that to #000000?

http://www.thirtyspace.com/templates...ss/general.css

These 2 are the main CSS files that effect the forum layout.

What's more troubling for me is I can see what appears to be the same setup over here and it works fine....

There are 2 things you can do that I can see.

#1:
Change this:

Code:

<div style="background-color: transparent; height: 50px;" class="tbl_p_msg">

to this:

Code:

<div style="height: 50px;" class="tbl_p_msg">

or #2
change this:

Code:

<div style="background-color: #ffffff;" id="f_tbl">

to this:

Code:

<div style="background-color: black;" id="f_tbl">

Errm black == #000000, anyway, FF3 RC1 has no problem with it, Opera thinks a few things are wacky, but may just be rendering wrong is all. I don't see the white around the posts though (I'm on Linux, as such, no IE)

You should try to get those errors removed. (You can ignore the warnings of course)
You may also wish to validate your (x)html http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=ht...Inline&group=0
