---+!! PatternSkinCssCookbook Recipe: Center the page with a border

*This recipe shows how to put a border around the page, while centering the page horizontally.* The example on this page uses a gradient image as background - on top of a gray base color. You can choose to set no image of course.

<div class="foswikiHelp">
This line loads the extra style definition:
<verbatim class="tml">
   * Set USERSTYLEURL = %PUBURLPATH%/%SYSTEMWEB%/PatternSkinCssCookbookCenterPageBorder/centerpageborder.css
</verbatim>
You can write this line in %SYSTEMWEB%.DefaultPreferences, in %USERSWEB%.SitePreferences, in WebPreferences, in your user topic or on a single page.
</div>

Add the dynamic link to the logo image to the topic text:
<verbatim class="html">
<style type="text/css" media="all">
#patternScreen {
background-image:url("%PUBURLPATH%/%SYSTEMWEB%/PatternSkinCssCookbookCenterPageBorder/gradient_page.gif");
background-repeat:repeat-x;
}
#patternPageShadow {
background-image:url("%PUBURLPATH%/%SYSTEMWEB%/PatternSkin/striped_pageshadow.gif");
}
</style>
</verbatim>
<div class="foswikiHelp">
%ICON{info}% If you don't write this overloading style in a template and use an external =.css= file, you need to set the image to the absolute url:
<verbatim class="html">
<style type="text/css" media="all">
    #patternScreen {
        background-image:url("%ATTACHURLPATH%/gradient_page.gif");
        background-repeat:repeat-x;
    }
</style>
</verbatim>
You can always write a =&lt;style>= in a topic - all current browsers support this - but the page won't validate as valid XHTML.
</div>

#patternScreen {
	background-image:url("%PUBURLPATH%/%SYSTEMWEB%/PatternSkinCssCookbookCenterPageBorder/gradient_page.gif");
	background-repeat:repeat-x;
}
#patternPageShadow {
	background-image:url("%PUBURLPATH%/%SYSTEMWEB%/PatternSkin/striped_pageshadow.gif");
}</style>"
}%
