   Hi guys, this is my first post on TSF, although I have regularly used it to learn development of child themes.

   I have taken a little bit of time out of developing and coming back to it I need to get more refreshed, but with little time.

   My problem is that on my custom front page, I need to insert a "background: none" style to div#main as I am using faux backgrounds throughout the site, although it is just not needed on the custom front page.

   I do not believe this can be done through an IF function on the frontpage.php as i am sure that Main is nested within thematic_abovecontainer... but I don't know how to edit the action in such a way in functions.php to achieve what I want.

   Should be an easy job I reckon... Its just that I need to get refreshed aha

   Thanks for any help guys!

   I've since figured that div#main is inside get_header() as it is clearly in the header.php file (DOH!)

   This is something I've tried but with no success: (probably lack of understanding)

   function frontpage_main($no_main_bg) {
if (is_front_page() ) {
$no_main_bg = '<div id="main" style="background: none;">';
}
}
add_action('get_header','frontpage_main');

   LOL after all that... did i or did I not say.. needing to get refreshed...

   the solution was an if function in the header.php of my child theme, or rather edit the one i had done before... but for solutions sake...

   <?php if (is_front_page() ) { ?>
<div id="main" style="border: none; background: none;">
<?php } else { ?>
<div id="main">
<?php } ?>
