If you do not want a color box around your title.

Matt, the transparency is the default. I wanted to change mine to black and used the code:
#forum_description {
color:#FFFF00;
background-color:#000000;
font-size:16px;
}
The end result is that the black background goes all the way accross. Is there a way to limit it to ONLY where the text is present?

Sorry for the Tip if that is the case although it can work in reverse for adding a color background. I believe that if you add to the description section.
display:inline;
It should limit it. Hope that works!

Yep that did the trick No need to be sorry, am very obliged for the tip.

Code now reads

#forum_description {
display:inline;
color:#FFFF00;
background-color:#000000;
font-size:16px;
}

And result is:

Glad it worked for you.

I see the Lefora folk have been doing some spruce up of the Support Forum. I like the blue Tabs and lettering. Nice job whoever is behind it.
