Hi from South AFRICA,
Suddenly I have a white border all around my blog which I do not want. I use Blogger. Where would I look in the HTML code to correct this?
Thanks

You will have to edit the CSS manually to alter the color, shapes and sizes of differenet elements within your website.

If its hosted on blogger, you will need to find the bit where it says #body or somethin similar and delete: "border: 1px solid white" , this is basically the CSS telling the browser to show a border of 1px width in white.. so just delete it and it will no longer have a border. All you need to do is find where the exact bit of css is, and alter it.

Always backup your template before making any changes however!

there is a default margin around the <body> element, setting the margin on the body to zero will remove what appears to be a "border"

apart from the silly "hacks" and the PHP variable which won't work if it's an external stylesheet

It seems so
