changing page border colours

[grimagon]

I have finally have my PHP link directory looking almost as i want it. One last thing i need help on...

I have my directory centred in the middle of the page (650 pixels wide), i would now like to change the colours of the sides so it will match the rest of my site. e.g. i want the 650 centred directory background to remain white while the remaining borders on both sides to be changed grey.

I hope someone can help me. Thanks!

Try setting the grey on the body element in the css.

That changes the whole page background colour though.

I want to keep the directory part with the white background and only change the borders. is it possible?

Couple caveats:

1. If you don't provide a link, no one can see what your situation actually looks like.

2. If you're using tables, I probably can't help you anyway; I haven't used tables for anything but tabular data (ESPECIALLY not for layout.....) for a couple of years.
