    css problem Removing Sidebox Border

    Hi all, this is my first time posting in a Forum so please forgive any errors.
    I can usually make alterations to my site after lots of searching and trial & error but this has got me really stumped! I've installed the Editable Sidebox Mod and I wanted no Heading or borders around it.
    I added the following code to the Stylesheet and managed to remove the Header no problem

    #editablesidebox h3{
    display: none;
    }

    but I cannot find a way to remove the borders... I thought this snippit of code might have done it:

    #editablesidebox{
    border:none;
    }
    but no luck .
    Has anyone in this fantastic forum got any ideas? Its as if the border is 'locked' by some other code in the Stylesheet and I can't override it.
    Many thanks (a silver surfer)

    That border is part of your sidebox background image. You should be able to remove it with background-image:none;, but I can't test that.

    Thanks but it didn't seem to make any difference, I tried the following code but it didn't work. Removed the header but didn't delete the border... maybe I didn't enter it correctly?

    #editablesidebox h3{
    display: none;
    }
    #editablesidebox {
    background-image:none;
    }

    anyone have any suggestions? before I start pulling my hair out

    Many Thanks Glenn, that works a treat... just what I needed. After spending days trying to figure it out myself it only took a few minutes after posting my question on here! Thanks again everyone.
