I'm modifying blackcandy, and want to have a border around the content. The code I have

/* CONTAINER
----------------------------------------- */
#BgContainer {
        width: 800px;
        margin: 0 auto;
}
#Layout {
        width: 760px;
        clear: both;
        overflow: hidden;
        margin: 15px auto;
}
#Content {
        width: 460px;
        float: left;
        margin: 0;
        text-align: left;
        background: #f9eab4;
        padding-left:7px;
        padding-right:7px;
        border-color: ##F7941D; //This doesn't work
        border-width: 10px; //Neither does this
}

Is there another code, or a way to get at the table that #Content represents?
Thanks,

You need to give it a style too:

border-style: solid;

A simpler way to do it:

border: 2px solid #333;

FYI, #Content is a div, not a table.
