Hello,

New to DNN, I'm trying a few things.

- First I want to change the background color but when I add
Body
{
background:#003576;
}
to the site / stylesheet editor nothing happens. Why is that? I have to manually change the background color in \Portals\_default\Skins\MySkin\Myfile.css for it to work.

- I have 2 simple needs with HTML modules:
A. One with a white background, a blue border and no title.
B. One with a white background, a blue border and a title as follow: blue background with white text.

How can I do it? I can't seem to find a way to get rid of the borders.

Thanks,
Cedric

Cedric,

Welcome to the DNN forum.

Regarding the background colour, it's probably a setting in one of the other CSS files that's got higher specificty than the setting you've added for the background, to see what CSS is being applied and with which file, try using the Firebug plugin for Firefox (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fire...). The body has an ID of Body and this is what some skin designer use as a reference in their CSS file so try using #Body in your css.

For the HTML modules you'll be requiring 2 containers, one with the border and a title and one without the title. Below is some basic HTML which you can use to create these yourself if you know how to create HTML container skins.

With Title HTML

[SOLPARTACTIONS]
<div class="blueborder">
<h2>[TITLE]</h2>
[CONTENTPANE]
</div>

Without Title HTML

[SOLPARTACTIONS]
<div class="blueborder">
[CONTENTPANE]
</div>

Container CSS

.blueborder{
border:1px solid #0000FF;
}

Regards,

Rick.
