How to remove "colored bar" when using indent ?

Post by Rytter »

Hi,

When I make an indent in my documents, I get a vertical bar which is colored. I don't want this displayed - I only want to have the indent.

Am I doing something wrong(should I use another function in the editor ?), or do the editor really "require" that colored bar to be there ?!?

And what do I do if I only want an ident for a part of the text(i cannot just add a "TAB" ?

For reference, have a look at my test site:  http://765.dk/cmsmadesimple/index.php?page=bestyrelse

Thanks in advance  :)

those bars are coming from CSS in the template that's being applied to the tag (which is what the editor is using for its "indent" function):

blockquote {
  border-left: 10px solid #ddd;
  margin-left: 10px;
}
eternity (n); 1. infinite time, 2. a seemingly long or endless time, 3. the length of time it takes a frozen pizza to cook when you're starving.
4,930,000,000 (n); 1. a very large number, 2. the approximate world population in 1986 when Microsoft Corp issued its IPO. 3. Microsoft's net profit (USD) for the quarter (3 months) ending 31 March 2007.

Hi, I have the same problem as Kenneth, and even tracked down the likely cause to the blockquote in the stylesheet, so I was a bit pleased with myself.  Sadly, I'm new to cms madesimple and to css so maybe I'm doing something stupid, but no matter how I alter the code, or even if I remove the code below

blockquote {
   border-left: 10px solid #ddd;
   margin-left: 10px;
}

from the stylesheet altogether, I still get the bar(s) showing up. 
There seems to me there must be something else causing the coloured bar.  I am using the default CMS install with the top simple navigation + left subnavigation + one column template.
