Hi,
I am using a commenting extension called
Article Commentshttp://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ArticleComments

I installed it it works perfect, now i want to modify as it kinda looks a bit ugly so i need to add

div.comment {
border: 1px solid silver;
padding: 1px;
margin-bottom: 16px;
}
etc and some code in the appropriate css file as instructed
Also put the following CSS in your theme-CSS
As per instructed at here http://www.leerwiki.nl/How_to_add_comme ... (extension

I want to know which and where should i be placing this code? Its mentioned to place the code in in your theme css file, which file is it??

you can just copy everything and put them in one of the CSS file... this is simple way.

well i solved the problem since i wanted the css to effect all the skins i put the code in common.css.. well the problem was that the text box was appearing too big.. on a lil bit investigatiion i saw that template.css had text area defined as height :600px deleting that solved the problem thanks anyways!
