Adding background to extra content

[Drae]

Over at my XF site, I have a shoutbox and twitter feed. I'd like to be held within a table that is styled the same as the back part of the forum. As I knew the primary content div class, I used that to test but there was no effect. How do I get it to work?

I am not sure what you want to achieve, but I guess you'll have to style the table, assuming you are referring to the bottom part in your signature. You also reuse primaryContent on the div containers, so you are probably inheriting some styling from that.

Here's a screenshot that might help a bit

The bit where the shoutbox and twitter are displayed, I would like to have that encased by the same bit of coding as the bit I have an arrow too/for it to inherit the same background coding.

I am still unsure what you are trying to create. As I said, I would apply the styling on the table you use to define those two widgets.

Yes, but telling the TD to be div class primaryContent etc didn't work.

Why not add the shout box and twitter into the pagecontainer template or maybe even ad_below_content template? Seems a waste to show it outside the main content.
