Hello,
I've created a new template for elxis and am trying to customize the look of the login module but I cant get it to work.
I've only been able to change the look of the title by modifying the table.moduletable th in the template_css.css file.
But now, how can I change the background color, add a border to it and maybe even change the look of the submit button?
Which css tag do I need to modify?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would suggest you to start using firefox browser, and arm yourself with developer toolbar for firefox. You should be able to see what tag is what, and alot of other things. No one can answer you question without all the parameters envolved. If you posted a link or HTML code.... we don't even know if you are using divs or tables in your layout, nor what are the names of HTML objects in it.
EDIT: eliasan has written nice Templates Design Reference Guide, check it out https://www.elxis.org/index.php?option=com_mtree&task=listcats&cat_id=77&Itemid=140

Add a css suffix to the login module . Edit module login and add to module class suffix something like -login
Then you will be able to modify separately the css of the module.

Thanks for the help guys.
Next time I'll add some code too, cant believe I didnt think about that :P

In Elxis 2008 each important unit, like login, is controlled by distinct CSS classes or ids.
That way you can have full control on the appearance of the web site.
Elxis 2006.4, as described above, needs workarounds like the module suffix set in module parameters.

That sounds great!
Really looking forward to the new and improved Elxis :D
