I am using a modified (not much) Garland theme, and I want to include a formatted block as provided by a web ring site in my footer. But the Garland theme formatting is completely botching the appearance of the block. (It is a table with various links and graphics - short story, everything is spaced out so much it becomes a giant table instead of a little region.)

I want to completely disable the Garland theming for the duration of this block, so it displays just as it does when inserted into a blank web page. Is there any easy way to do this?

All suggestions much appreciated.

1. Get firebug and the developer toolbar

2. over-ride whatever system.css styles you don't like with your own ones to unset it
eg, where your custom block is .block-block-2.

.block-block-2 table , .block-block-2 tbody , .block-block-2 tr .block-block-2 th , .block-block-2 td  {
 padding:0;
 margin:0;
 border:0;
}
