Hi everybody! Its nice to be on this forum, seems to be a nice new community.

I have a pretty simple question, i think.

I designed this site:
http://www.cte.intechsites.com/index.html

Then had to redesign it because it didnt allow the content to be longer than the size of div 8. So here is what i got.
http://www.cte.intechsites.com/index2.html

However, after learning how to do a lot in CSS, i figured out everything except for the shadow divs, any idea how to position these correctly and make them stretch the size of the wrapper div?

Also, how can I add a div that would be under the Classes div?

basically to put the validation links and the designed by information, look at the first link for reference.

THANKs a ton.

I'll never understand why people try to do shadows the hard way - and that's exactly what you did. The EASIEST way to have a drop shadowed effect is to take a small horizontal 'slice' of the graphic layout that extends all the way across and INCLUDES the shadow. Then you specify a 'wrapper' div and set that shadowed graphic to tile vertically down the page. Voila - drop shadowed layout.

In looking at your layout, I would suggest just that. If you put all your existing code inside a "wrapper" div, then it will 'contain' everything else AND be your background w/o the unnecessary vertical divs just for shadows.
