Coloured background

[Goodthing07]

Hello,How would I go about setting a website so that there is a light coloured background and then the content of the website is all centred? An example of which is the W3Schools website the way they have their layout?Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey there! Well, first off, you'll have to go to your site's CSS file and find (or create) the property "background-color" in the "body" section of the stylescript, then assign the color you like. The color picker is quite handy for this stuff: http://w3schools.com/tags/ref_colorpicker.asp?colorhex=%23330033 As for the centering, you might try aligning your main content using the "margin" property. Here's the W3Schools tutorial on that: http://w3schools.com/css/css_align.asp
