Is there a way to add a black 1pt hairline...

[Christine]

Is there a way to add a black 1pt hairline as a border separating my site and the background. 

For both the left and right sides of my site...

The black thin line needs to appear on the side of the header (aka top ad box) and then continuously follow down the page to the bottom of the screen. 

Please let me know if you can help.  Here is my network: http://www.bridaltweet.com

Thanks,

Christine

Give this a try in advanced css box

 

#xg_body {

border: 1px solid black!important;

}

#xg_body {
border-left: 1px solid black!important;
border-right: 1px solid black!important;
}

George,

Thanks so much.  I implemented this.  Now, how do I get the lines to continuously extend upward, so that they are on the sides of the header (aka top ad text box)?  Also, is there a way to eliminate the space between my top ad text box and the tabs (i.e. Home, Why You Should Join, Your Stuff, etc.) on my site?

I can't thank you enough!

Your welcome I'm glad I could help :-)

okay replace the code you just used with this one :-)

DIV#xg_ad_above_header.xg_ad.xj_ad_above_header, DIV#xg_head, #xg_body {
border-left: 1px solid black!important;
border-right: 1px solid black!important;
}

George - You are the best!  Now, is there anyway to remove the background space that is appearing in between my top ad box and the tabs(i.e. Home, Why You Should Join, Your Stuff, etc.)?  Thank you AGAIN!, Christine

Of course there is :-) I also change the width of the ad box from 955px to 953px  so the borders would line up better :-)

Ad this code with the code above

you're welcome and thank you.  You have a great day, Christine

DIV#xg_ad_above_header.xg_ad.xj_ad_above_header{margin-bottom:-15px!important; width:953px!important;}

wow wow wow!  do you work for ning?  for future reference, do you do design work?

[George H. Compton IV]

lol No I don't work for ning lol

Yes I do design work. To give you an example here's a discussion I started for people who can't afford a web designer.  I tried to make it compatible with most Ning networks because there are differences in the layouts and themes.  So there are some adjustments that need to be done on some networks after this stylesheet is implemented but it looks beautiful.  :-)

"TIP" "style_GC_whole_network.css" Update Version 5.3

This stylesheet will add styles and animation fx throughout your whole network blogs, forums, groups, latest activity, comments and a whole…

here's a snapshot with it virtually added to your network

ok!  thank you again.  i'll keep you in mind for the future.
