.formcontrols .section {
	padding:0 15px;
}

I added my border color & width there & it worked like a charm. I guess I better check IE now. maybe I need to set it in both places.

thanks again

I'd advise against changing it here as it makes things like the search form look a bit screwy. I finally found the stylevar that actually needs to be changed to make this happen:

Under Common -> tabslight_border

Hope that helps. I have no idea what block_border does either - nothing happened for me.
