Q: 

CSS/div issue regarding width

I'm having a few small issues with my css that I need help with...

In the following site... http://www.echo143.com/Site/

I'm looking to extend the "block_content" and footer to the complete width of the page.. the blue and pink div's... But it doesn't seem to want to do that even if I put width:100% for the div's...

Suggestions?

Thanks

You should move the block_content div out of the header and out of main. And you should set its width to 100%.

(+1) Kerido is right, this should help!You just have to think of the <div></div> tags as if it was a real box. You could not place the bigger box in the smaller ones... -> If you want block_content to be bigger than everything else you have to place everything else into(between the div /div) it.

Thank you for the quick responses... block_content is out of the header and main... its on its own... i feel like <div class=clear> after the navigation is messing things up but not sure why.

Specifically, you need to move the block_content and footer divs out of the "container" div, because it has a width of 950px set on it.
