  I want to divide a page into different categories. Can I add text boxes on a page?

  Hi there, you can add a box around the text in your page using CSS code, if you’re comfortable with it.

  The code you’d use would depend on the effect you want – for example, a border around the box? A coloured background?

  As a starting point, this code would give you a box with a 1-pixel, black border around it:

  <div style="border: 1px solid #000;">
  Your text here.
  </div>

  If you let me know what kind of effect you’re after I’d be glad to help you with the code.
