 * I wan’t to edit Gluttony theme. At the end of header.php are two unclosed div
   elements. One is a wrapper and the other is the container(in which the main-column
   and content reside. See: [http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii114/adredz/wrapper.jpg](http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii114/adredz/wrapper.jpg),
   the outmost red border is the container, yellow is for the maincolumn, and green
   is the content). If I close then wrapper, the container slides to the left and
   can’t be centered through the use of margin. If I close the container tag, it
   disappears. I’m very confused. I just wan’t to make the content extend to both
   sides so it would overlap the container. How would I do it? I tried editing style.
   css with no luck…

 * if you want css help you need to provide a link to the site you are working on.
   its nearly impossible to answer style questions by looking at an image.
