All is well I've learned everything from taking code and tweaking it to learn what it does.

This code:
background:rgb(231, 223, 206); border:solid 1px #AF7817"
is what controls the background color and border color of the description box. I used RGB because I was using RGBA(doesn't work in IE) to make it transparent awhile back but you can use about any color code. I know RGBA ( red, green, blue, opacity), RGB (reg, green, blue), and Hexadecimal work on this wiki as well as some common color names (ie: black, white, pale green, navy, etc).

When using RGB the reg, green, blue values can be anything from 0-255 and RGBA is the same except the opacity part is a number that ranges from 0-1.00. Where 1 is opaque and 0 is transparent. There are some links that might prove useful to you in my sandbox under the title Nifty Links. There are examples of stuff in my sandbox as well you can look at.       21:05, 16 July 2011 (BST)

One last piece of advice. <div> tags are mainly for large page elements. For example you could use
<div style="font-family: verdana; font-size:90%; padding:10px; background-color:darkorange; border-left:solid 2px #555555; border-top:solid 2px #555555; border-bottom:solid 2px #555555"> (all the pages content here) </div>
to generate a page similar to what is here now. While <span> tags are used to format text. Make sure to close the tags as well I've broken lots of stuff like that :P.        21:30, 16 July 2011 (BST)
