Getting Background and Borders to extend to page width

    All,

    I am pretty new to CSS, and I am trying to fix a site for a friend. Another guy started building the site, and he flaked out on it. So I am just trying to get him going again.

    The site is http:www//optimusbusinessplans.com. I would like to extend the background color of the header section across the entire screen on bigger monitors. I would also like for the borders to go with.

    For some reason it is working in the footer, but I can't figure out why. Can you help me?

    Thanks.

    The #footer is outside the #pagewrap so it is not limited to 960px width. So you will need to do the same for the header section.

    Thanks. I found an extra </div> that was closing it too early for me. I got it fixed.
