    Hi all,

    can anyone help me out with something,,look here
    http://smartwavetech.com/

    see the way the header and footer are 100% but the rest of the site is centered. How can i do this in CSS.

    should i have a header div and float another div in the middle for the text/logos,, then have a wrapper centered for all the middle bits and then the same as i did for the header for the footer ?


    Or is there a much easier way to get this.

    I was thinking of just setting the body background with an image but if the site went over a centain height it would repeat on it's self.

    I know it's not to hard... but i cant think of it at the moment.

    Header-wrapper div with 100% width. Header-inner div with 800px (or whatever) width within it and margin : auto;.

    Same for the footer.

    800px wide content-wrapper between the two.


    ....which I think is pretty much what you said. So yeah, that's the way I'd do it.
