 * I’m a bit new WP…
 * When I want to add a nice looking box with a quote inside like the one this guy
   is using on his WP site (the yellow box in the middle with the quote):
 * [http://www.wordpressppc.com/the-super-secret-something](http://www.wordpressppc.com/the-super-secret-something)
 * I went to ‘source’, cut his code (just as an example, I’m not planning on stealing
   anyone’s code or verbage) and tried to insert it into my page, but I can’t get
   it to look like his yellow box with a dashed border. On my site, it looks like
   a regular quote you get when you insert a quote into the page in 2.7. Here is
   the code I borrowed for this example:
 * > <p>You’ve clicked through 4 pages of presell
   >  **and you’re still reading**.
   > That is the “something” I’m talking about.</p>
 * How can I get a box like hiss into my WP website? Not sure if this makes a difference,
   but I’m putting it on a static page… Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!!!!
