full width nav outside 960 wrap

[flamenco]

Hi,
Along with Nick's excellent suggestion, I just wanted to offer another thought. I have one client who really enjoys having the odd bar go all the way across, but having all the rest in a wrapper.

After looking at the Genesis HTML output, I realized that this is quite easy to do with a tiny bit of CSS, so now I do that routinely. I don't define the width of the outer wrapper at all, so it just goes all the way across.

Then for each subsequent DIV inside the wrapper I have 2 nice choices... I can either define its width so that it seems to be in a wrapper, or leave it alone so it goes all the way across.

But wait, there's more... what if you need, say, a graphic background image for a section that goes all the way across, but you still want its content to be in a "wrapper"? That's easy, too. You just use the .wrap class that's inside each section - define its width for that DIV, and you can have your cake and eat it, too.

You don't even need to write any function code for this method, just CSS.

Cheers, Dave
