   Hi,
   My site is - http://www.aflsource.com , the problem I'm having is with my home page.

   I have a html page loading up 1st which will display an intro to the site which then has a link to my post entries.

   I cant get this html page to be formated correctly, at the moment you will be able to see that there is a white line that i cant get rid of, and the white background will not sit in the correct place.

   Hopefully someone can give me a hand, the project is due at the end of the week

   thank you
   daniel

   This assignment?

   FWIW, you need to find the correct container to apply the background to. Use a php include for a php page for the intro. I didn't see a white line.

   ideally, all bumpers should be ignored ;-)
   it's against the forum rules

   check:
   

   html{
   	background:#edf9fe url(images/bgr_html.gif) repeat-x;
   	border-bottom:5px solid #ffffff;
   }

   PS get yourself the developer add-on for firefox and/or the firebug - it's free and if you do more webstuff, it is a very good tool to find things like white lines ;-)

   Hey ignore my other 2 posts

   found the code you provided and i deleted

   border-bottom:5px solid #fffff;

   it removed the line.

   The only problem i have now is if you can check the site, you will notice on the left side there is a shadow and on the right there isnt.

   im not sure what to do to get rid of the shadow.

    the sheadow, it's the background image of #footer:

    #footer{
    
    	width:100%;
    
    	background:url(images/bgr_footer.png) no-repeat;
    
    	padding:20px 0 50px 0;
    
    }

    about the develper add-on firefox:

    there is the toolbar -> dropdown button 'CSS' -> 'view style information':
    when you mouse-over your webpage, it highlights the html elements and on click gives you possibly the styles of these elements.

    Ok thanks

    Im not sure why its being shown on the HTML document which is the welcome page, and then on the other pages, its not being shown

    i deleted the background:url line, but it did nothing

    you can find the line in : http://aflsource.com/wp-content/themes/Stripey/style.css

    and it is still in there:
    

    /* FOOTER */
    
    #footer{
    	width:100%;
            background:url(images/bgr_footer.png) no-repeat;
    	padding:20px 0 50px 0;
    
    }

    if you make changes to the styles, and cannot see any results, try refreshing the browser window by presing CTRL F5

    good luck with the assignment ;-)
