CSS Layout

[af152001uk]

Hi

I am still very wet behind the ears when it comes to CSS and HTML. How do I do CSS layout. I want to get a blue boarder along the left hand side of my page and along the top. I then want to add my main text to the right of the boarder. I cant even get my text to move to the part of the page i want.

Please help.

You'll need to use the border and margin CSS properties.  Read up on the box model and the difference between margins and padding here: http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/box.html
