Ok great, this is going to be a form widget style for use with
default-table-style. Should it go in maincss.css or somewhere else?

In general each style, or more importantly each set of styles, should
have a purpose and be used together in the context they were meant for
and then never used outside that context.
The current styles and how they are used are pretty messy. We have
established some goals for their use, mostly along the lines of the CSS
Zen Garden stuff, but only very little work (and interest...) has gone
into that direction.
The least we can do is look at styles in terms of their purpose and NOT
in terms of their function and use them that way.
In other words, create a new style rather than trying to re- or
multi-purpose an existing style. BTW, for clarity: I used the term style
here because in CSS terms these should all be "class".

Hi, we need a style in maincss.css for form widget tables to give them
100% width style with a 1px border. Basically we need to make the
table the size of the page, otherwise the columns will be squished
together. Adding a 1px border is also a good cosmetic effect.
I found that the class .boxoutside is suitable for this if "width:
100%" is added. Alternatively, a new style could be created by
copying boxoutside and adding the width 100%.
What would be the best way?
