Help Editing Background of Text Options

[JesusFreak1292]

Right now my code on my xanga (www.xanga.com/shadowofthedoubt)

CODE

<style type="text/css">table.blogbody{border: 20px double #30308F; background: #487878 url() center center repeat; text-align: left;}</style>

and it does everything I want it to, but I don't know how to change the width of it, can anybody tell me how? Thanks!

Also I need to know how to center the resized text area.

It would look like this.

CODE

<style type="text/css">table.blogbody{border: 20px double #30308F; background: #487878 url() center center repeat; text-align: left; width:300px;}</style>

Just change where I added width to any number you want, and I'm not very clear on what you're trying to ask for your second question.

Thanks, that worked great!

In the second question I mean the Box that my text is contained in. Does that make sense, I'm not sure how to word it...
