I am currently using Joomla! 1.5.3 and I am using red_template_15.

I have a banner that I need to display on the pages for Special Olympics Texas. I have gotten the banner installed, but I have one issue. On a couple of the templates that I could use (and one that I really like) put a blue border around the image.

Special Olympics Texas is asking me to remove the border.

The border shows up on the following templates that I have installed:

beez
Burning Sensation
Gridded: Red

It does not show on the following templates:

JA_Purity
rhuk_milkyway

The website is currently located at the following:

http://www.beta.mansfieldmustangs.com

I am pretty sure I am going to have to modify the CSS file for the template, but I am unsure where to make the change. Any help that anyone can provide will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Les Fenton

I was hoping to have had some help by now. I guess my question was a more difficult one than I thought.

Is this problem caused by the template or by a module?

I really need to fix this soon so that I can meet Special Olympics Texas website requirements.

Thanks!

Hi, I was just having the same problem and I think I have something to help you out with.

Try opening your template.css file and adding:

Code:
div.banneritem img
{
border: 0;
}


I added it after the div#mod-banner definition, but I think that's not mandatory.
This worked for me, hope it helps you too!

Hey, me again, I just visited your site and I noticed that you have borders around the PRINT and EMAIL buttons on the content heading.

I don't know if you want this like that, but I also had that problem, to solve it, try adding the following to you template.css:
Code:
table.contentpaneopen img {
   border:none;
}


Hope I can help.

I was unable to find "div#mod-banner" in the template_css.css file.

I can send you the entire CSS file, but I didn't think I'd want to post it here.

Are you using this template? I have one other problem with it, but I don't want to bother everyone about it. If you are using this template, let me know and we can discuss it off-line.

Thanks. I really appreciate it.

I'm not using your template but try adding my instructions in the end of the css file, it should work.

It will really help to see the banner module published in your website to verify the id's and classes names of its divs.

You can send me here your css, and I'll try to help, and don't worry, there's no "bother". I'm glad to help.

Thank you for your willingness to help.

I applied your instructions to the end of the template. It removed the border from the PRINT and EMAIL buttons, but did not remove it from the Special Olympics Texas logo.

I like the way it looks, but the logo is the most important part that I need to change. Once we fix this problem we can discuss my other issues. This is the most important thing that needs to be fixed on the website. Once I get that border removed the website can be approved and I can tell our team about the new site.

I will send you the CSS file via the e-mail link on the forums.

Thanks again.

Les Fenton

Ok, now I see the problem, I thought it was an unpublished banner, I never noticed the "Special Olympics Texas" banner, I don't know exactly what kind of banner is that but the hard solution is this: (add it to your template.css)

Code:
div.banneritem_text img
{
border: 0;
}


I just tested it, with that your done!
:D

Wow! That worked perfectly! I really appreciate the help.

I will send an e-mail through the board about the other issues or do you think I should start a new post about that problem? It has to do with the main menu buttons on the template not looking like the "image".

Let me know what you think and thanks again!

Hi tadekchavez... I tried this code on my template as well, and it worked to remove the borders around the PDF, print, and e-mail icons! This is great!

I am also having difficulties with my banner, and so I am looking for some help. Our church website is located at http://www.ascensionfdl.org/alc/ and I just upgraded to Joomla 1.5.15 this past week. We are using this template (slightly modified) on our website:

http://www.freejoomlatemplatez.com/building/joomla-15x/368-bizblueii.html

If you go to our church website, you will see one of two banners that rotate at the bottom of the home page (either the ELCA one or the ECSW one). In both cases, there is a blue border around the banners. And, I would like the banner centered on the screen rather than left-aligned. The banner module is in the "bottom" position. Would you be able to help me with this issue? We are going to make this site "live" to our congregation at the end of the month. Thanks.
