How to make a border around a page?

Hi ,

I want to make up a sales page, and would like a border on the page.

I would like to have rounded corners.

How do I do this? What is the code etc. I think I might have to draw the top and bottom parts and then the sides or something.

If you show me a URL or page, and which block your want to apply the border to, i can tell you better

 

Hi,

Like the border shown here. http://splashpagetemplates.com/

I think that I need to draw the top, bottom and sides in coreldraw. Then after that I get lost.

I use this website to generate round corners for my pages.

Ah nice link Ant-Lion has pointed. Will get the job done for you.

Or to do it manually, See the MainImage.gif

<div class="main">

<div class="topBorder">Crop top line Image and use in this block, like TopImage.gif</div>

<div class="middleContent">Repeat-y the body background Image, like MiddleRepeatImage.gif </div>

<div class="bottomBorder">Crop bottom line Image and use in this block, like BottomImage.gif</div>

</div> <!-- Main Ends -->

I wish i could show some more illustration.

 

Also if you want to make simple rounded corners with CSS only, no image, CSS3 has new border-radius properties.

But, this is only supported in latest versions Firefox & Safari so far. IE & Opera users will see normal straight border.

And you have to write two separate CSS lines for Firefox & Safari, like this :

{ border:1px solid #000; -moz-border-radius:10px; -webkit-border-radius:10px; }

Code explained here - css3.info/preview/rounded-border

And a preview can be found on markupdude.com my incomplete website's [shameless self-promotion] Orange color sidebar.

[use Firefox or Safari, or else you will see straight borders.]

 

hmm, got that sort of.

Now I want to use that border around a page for an ebay add. But How will I use the css in a plain html file.

I understand that you have eg. and index.html file then say navigation.css, main.css etc etc.

So how can I get that border on an ebay add?
