I've been mainly focusing on back end programming with DNN 05.06.01 but I have a little skin/layout work to do and I'm a bit lost.

 We have skins and containers already made and I have assigned Module Containers to Modules and got the desired results.  The Modules Container adds a border with rounded edges to the module for a consistent look throughout the site.  What I need to do now is wrap a part of the page that is made up of several modules with one Module Container.  What is the best way to go about that? Or is it even possible?

Thanks

You  cannot wrap more then one module in a container, but you could add a border around the pane containing the modules and use a container without border...

Thanks,  I worried that might be the case. Now I just have to figure out how to make a pane!

Another option is to display the "Display Container" option for each of the module containers.

By default you cannot wrap mutiple modules in one container, but you can make it appear the end user that some modules have no container.

There are several modules available that permit you to insert several modules inside of a module. One example is Module Wrapper from ZLDNN.com. It may provide the functionality you seek.
