    I am sure this is a really easy task. I have tried all sorts of different tags in different places but cannot get it how i want.

    Basically, i want a black border on my main content table, about 10 pixels.

    If anyone could let me know how to do this i would be greatful.

    I also want to know how to not have the border show at the top or have any padding at the top. Hope this makes sense.:)

    the site is www.allscoresnow.com

    That's an iframe. Do you have access to the livescore source?
    .tabulka {
      border: 10px solid gray;
      border-top: none;
      }
    Code (markup):
    Or, if you meant the whole thing,
    
    iframe {
      border: 10px solid gray;
      border-top: none;
      }
    Code (markup):
    cheers,

    thanks for the reply. It seems i was a little unclear about the table i was talking about. I am not wanting a border around the iframe (livescores), i was wanting a border around the main table, i.e the table containing everything. Literally i just want a border around it all. Hope this makes more sense?!:confused:

    Thanks anyway though, i think i was a little unclear.

    Give that top level table an id, say 'wrapper'. Then in the stylesheet,
    
    body { 
      margin: 0;  /*browsers default to 8px margin on body*/ 
      }
    
    #wrapper {
      /*same border rules as previous post*/
      }
    Code (markup):
    There may be a browser or two which apply 8px padding to html, instead of margin on body.

    cheers,

    gary
