Hello

I use a slightly altered ver. of the professional theme on my site. There's something I can't figure out. Between the left column of blocks and footer there's a white border and a grey one (#CCCCCC). The grey one is in addition to the footer top border (also grey) which I have removed already. So, where do I remove the remaining white and grey border between footer and left blocks? I looked in style.css but didn't find it. Take a look at www.caoplaton.com and you'll see what I mean. The site is not finished yet, so the design is not that good looking for the moment.

Another question, if you take a look at my site www.caoplaton.com I would like to have a cutout effekt on the content of the left blocks while the striped metal look works like a left/right border.....just like on the logo. How do I acomplish this? I've already set the grey striped background in *.css for, but can I make a different background for block content? If so, where?

Have you tried footer.thtml and removing this class="block-divider-right"?

No, I haven't. Block-divider-right ? According to the name that should not be the border beetween footer and left blocks, but I'll try it out

Nope, it didn't remove the divider.
I think maybe you've misunderstood. I'm talking about the the bottom border of the left blocks. It's white and grey (but you don't see the grey border easily due to the background). I'm not talking about the divider between blocks. In other words, it's the white line above the copyright text in the footer.

Any help would be appreciated. If you're still confused, take a look at www.caoplaton.com again.

in footer.thtml find the class block-divider-right attached to a table that displays only the speck.gif. remove that table and your border is gone. that'll take care of the grey, now find the following in your leftblocks.thtml after {geeklog_blocks} and remove it to remove the white border.

Hello
Thnx but sorry, it didn't remove the white border. It only resulted in a more narrow left column.

I think I got it.....but I had to do it somewhat differently. I'll tell you after testing.

Okay, here we go!
Originally the border area between the left colum of blocks and footer consists of 1 line of grey on top (CCCCCC), 1line of white in the middle, and 1 line of grey (CCCCCC) at the bottom.

1. To remove the grey at the top you simply edit the footerblock top border in style.css to 0px width.
2. To remove the white AND grey line at the bottom you edit the footer, and remove:
class="block-divider-right">

I didn't change leftbloks.thtml at all. Not very logical considering that I can see the border in that file.....but changing anything there doesn't make a difference.....weird isn't it? I mean, when opening leftblocks.html in front page I can actually see the border, but still it doesn't show when uploaded and published.

I think that may be because speck.gif is transparent and just used for the sake of holding the left column's width.
