  • 0

On this page, I’m trying to create a text box around the paragraph that begins “It’s important not to…”. I used this CSS:

.transbox  {
    background: #F5FBEF;
    border: 1px solid #E3F6CE;
    padding: 10px;
    margin: 10px auto;
}

The text has moved slightly out of line with the other text in the article, but it’s not showing how it’s supposed to. Any ideas what’s wrong?

    Your .transbox styles are within CSS comment tags, that is why they are not showing up. Move the styles out of the /* */ tags.

    Also, you should note that there are no paragraph tags within the box itself, so .transbox p will not work.
