That's from albinoblacksheep.com, correct? Couldn't you just view the page source (ctrl+U) and get the CSS for the layout? :0

Go Go Horrorshow!

Wait... I just got an idea of how to BS your way to those snazzy text boxes! No further HTML knowledge required! Take some more screenshots of snazzy textboxes you like. Then open them in MS Paint and use the eraser tool to remove the text. Then punch in your own, save it, slam it on your page in Frontpage as a centered image (make sure the background of your "box" matches the background of your page), upload it to your site, and Voila!

I think this would work to, but if i have too much text i have to rescale the box. If i had a script i could easely rescale it....i think. Well i'm waiting for Horrorshows reply.

Sorry to say, but I think this will take a bit more time than I had expected. .__.''

I'll try to finish it as soon as I can figure out what to do. @w@''

It took a little bit of research, but here's what I came up with.

All the standard stuff, make sure that all the files are in the same folder. The only thing that was weird about the code I wrote is that I used two tables, one within the other, so if you want to change the width of the box you have to do it manually. Other than that you should be fine. Tell me if you have problems or questions. It's pretty easy to externalize this into another file, rather than just copying and pasting the CSS code at the top of all your pages, but tell me if you need to know how to do that.

What do you think?
