# Post formatting — add line between posts

 * After reviewing lots of other topics, I have found that adding borderbottom: 
   3px solid will add a border to the bottom of every post. I am using the Crimson
   Sunrise template there is no .post portion of the style sheet to add it to. Any
   thoughts on how I can do this? The site address is [http://www.constitutionpercussion.org](http://www.constitutionpercussion.org)
   and the actual page that I am working with is: [http://constitutionpercussion.org/?page_id=40](http://constitutionpercussion.org/?page_id=40)
 * You can see that it is a test page. I have made a completely different template
   to make the posts pull into that page. I am trying to change my current news 
   page to this format, but I need to get a few cosmetic things out of the way first
   such as this.
 * Any thoughts?
 * Thanks for your help in advance.

 * looks you’re putting posts in
    `<div class="entry">`
 * So that’s probably the class you want to add your border-bottom on.

 * Yes. That’s correct. I thought that was it, but I couldn’t get any changes when
   I added the changes. Here’s the stylesheet info that I have for it. When I change
   the .entry from 0px to anything else, it changes the border of the box, but it
   doesn’t include the info. Am I just placing the border-bottom in the wrong place?
 * /* entry
    ————————————————–*/ .entry {padding-bottom:15px; margin-bottom:20px;
   font-size:95%; border-bottom: dotted 0px #eee; } .entry .info {position:relative;
   padding:1px; border:1px solid; font-size:0.9em; border-color:#ddd; background-
   color:#f4f4f4; line-height:1.3em;} .entry.single {clear:both;} .entry .info a{
   margin-right:6px; padding-right:9px; border-right:1px solid; #949494;} .entry.
   info em {padding-right:6px; font-style:normal;} .entry .author, .entry .editlink
   a {padding:0 0 0 5px; border-left:1px solid; border-right:none;} .entry #filedunder{
   clear:both; padding:3px 0 0 0; font-size:0.9em;} .entry a.more {padding-left:
   12px; background:url(/images/more.gif) center left no-repeat;} .entry .info .
   date {padding-left:15px; background:url(/images/post.gif) center left no-repeat;}.
   entry .info .author {padding-left:23px; border-color:#949494; background:url(/
   images/author.gif) 10px 2px no-repeat;}

 * Probably just tripping over colors.
 * Replace that first line with:
    `.entry {padding-bottom:15px; margin-bottom:20px;
   font-size:95%; border-bottom: dotted 1px #333; }`

 * That’s what I thought too, but check this link and you can see what happens. 
   The dotted line appears like it’s suppose to, but I can’t figure out why it won’t
   go around the actual post text.

 * Well, it won’t go around because you’re only asking for a bottom border.
    `border-
   bottom: dotted 1px #333;`
 * So change that last bit to just border, not border-bottom
