Sidebar height to match size of widget

Try adding:

#sidebar ul li #webFrmID ul {border:none;)

to the bottom of style.css

OK – I must be thick or something.

Do I add it before or after the following line:

/* End Various Tags & Classes*/

I tried adding it before the line above – no change. I tried adding it after the last mention of sidebar with the css stylesheet – no change.

Can I just delete the divider lines in the sidebar altogether? that would solve the problem.

Thanks for your help.

Try adding this to the bottom of your style.css file:

#sidebar ul li #webFrmID ul {background-image: none !important;}

The above code will delete the line altogether…

If you want the line back below the subscribe button, you can add the following code to the style.css file as well…

#sidebar ul li #webFrmID {background:url(images/bg_li_bottom.gif) left bottom repeat-x !important; margin-bottom: 20px !important;}

You can add all the above after “/* End Various Tags & Classes*/” or just before it.

No joy with removing the line. Any other suggestions?

The theme is Deep Silent, if that helps.

Here is the code for the newsletter opt-in field. Maybe there’s something wonky in the code that’s causing the problem.

#webFrmID .cntBox { position: relative; left: 50%; width: auto; float: left; clear: both; text-align: left; margin: 0; }
#webFrmID .cntBox .box { position: relative; left: -50%; float: left; padding: 0; }

It should work…
Did you include it correctly? I copied and paste the HTML for the page to a local html file and added the codes I stated in the previous reply and the line was removed…..

fyi: The line that you see is actually an image file… not a border setting..

geraldyeo,

Thanks for your help! I pasted that code in the right spot and…nothing changed. However, you did provide the tidbit of info that brought about the breakthrough – the line is an image file. Aha!

I went into the style.css code and changed the background from an image url to none – that did the trick! Woo hoo!

Here’s where I made the change:

.widgettitle{
border-bottom:1px solid #767155;
}
#sidebar ul{
background-image:none;
}
#sidebar ul li ul li ul{
background-image:none;
margin-bottom:50px;
padding-top:0px;
padding-bottom:0px;
border:none;
}
#sidebar ul li ul{
background-image:none;
background-repeat:repeat-x;
background-position:bottom left;
padding-bottom:10px;
margin-bottom:20px;
padding-top:5px;
border-top:1px solid #767155;

The third #sidebar ul li ul{ section (under .widgettitle{) originally had this code:
background-image:url(images/bg_li_bottom.gif);

Thanks again and hope this can help others, too.

Ciao,

Melinda
