I am teaching myself all of this cool stuff like css, html, php, etc. So there is a ton that I just haven't figured out yet.
I need the Submit Link, Search and Top Links boxes to line up in the same row with the same width. I can't seem to figure out how to get that to happen.
Can someone just give me a clue as to which file should I be working with? The css or the template? And which tags should I be using? I can probably figure it out with just that much info.
Also... Is there documentation somewhere that says something to the effect of which default template files each css element is located in? It would be helpful to know so that if I want to change one of these elements in the main.tpl file then I'll know whether or not it is in another .tpl file that I might have to modify also.
I was able to get the boxes where I really wanted them. They are in the wrapper.tpl so that they appear on all of the pages. I'd like the table row they are in to have a white background and for the width of the table row to be somewhat dynamic to the width of the three boxes. Plus centered on the page.

No, but you can do a search for the css class name in the /templates/default/ (or multilingual) directory with your operating system's search tools.
