Hi,
I have 3 modules that are below each other and they are touching each other but i would like to create a 5px or 10px gap in between the modules.
I have been reading that the header and footer sections in the modules settings can be used for this kind of thing, but i do not know how to go about it.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
Kind regards,
Matt

You'd probably want to add the spacing to the container. When I make any containers, I wrap them in a div with a class of Container then in the css you can just give that Container class a top and bottom margin.

Example ASCX:
<div class="Container>
    <dnn:ACTIONS runat="server" id="dnnACTIONS" />
    <div class="ContainerTitle"><dnn:TITLE runat="server" id="dnnTITLE" CssClass="Title" /></div>
    <div class="ContainerContentPane" runat="server" id="ContentPane"></div>
</div>

Example CSS:
.Container { margin: 10px 0; }

Hi,
Many thanks for the reply, but i don't know if i have the knowledge to do what you said, as I just buy skins and containers off snowcovered.

I was hoping that there maybe a simple piece of code that would go in either the header or footer in the module settings. As i recently found out that i can align left, right and centre by using div tags in the header and footer, and i guess i'm looking for the same kind of thing to add pading/margin.

the containers that i'm trying to alter can be seen here: http://www.reason4tutorial.com/Produc... 

Any ideas?
Cheers,
Matt

Hi Matthew, low tech solution I have used in the past in this situation is to add a HTML module in between the modules, add a space in the text editor (you might need to adjust the font size to achieve the size of the gap you want) and untick Display Container in the module settings. That will give you what I call a "buffer zone". Hope that helps!
