hi guys, I am evaluating AT 2.6 and I am having some issues. I try to fix them myself but for example this borders problem is giving me a hard time.

I wasn't Logged in.so I am sure it was in view mode and not edit mode.in edit mode the whole skin acts crazy by showing borders everywhere

I tried to use a skin as ins without modification and with modification all Yields the same result.

you mean under "Articles" -> "Other elements" - >tables?

because this would also change all generic tables, which I don't really mind but just to be clear.

thanks

I did try to remove the table borders from the generic tables in the artisteer application, some elements still show table borders!
like the "Announcements" module and any Table i add under the HTML module.

F.K. sometimes the modules themselves have a module.css that will override the CSS definitions in the skin. DNN has a hierarchy to stylesheets that basically "tree" down as follows:

_default.css (DNN's core css)
skin.css (you skins css)
portal.css (additional css you've defined on the portal in Admin | Site Settings | Stylesheet)
module.css (any styles define within the module, by the module developer)
inline styles (any styles you've place in content through the HTML editor, etc)

It can be quite daunting to "find" the style being applied. I'm a big fan of a FireFox plug in called Firebug (free) that allows you to right mouse click and "Inspect Element" to see exactly what CSS is being applied to an element and where it's coming from.

It's been a big time-saver for me when trying to figure out what is Artisteer and was is something else when it comes to styles.
