Using Top Borders

Using top borders is easy and adds a dramatic touch to your site. Your first step is to download the spacer below and upload it to your server. Include the top border image in the body tag of your page. Then add the spacer below before adding anything else to your page (ie. welcome banner, text, etc.). The spacer will prevent your images from running into your top border. If you find that your border repeats you may need to add additional spacers to your html code.

The spacer is set in a frame so you can see it-it will not appear like this on your page. Right-click on the spacer and save it to your hard drive.

Your html should look something like this.You will need to edit the code to reflect the image names.
