    Hi! I have developed a site on the Scribble Child Theme. I am having a problem with the header.

    The header and widget area menu don't stay above the rest of the site when you make the browser window smaller.

    Here is a link to the site - http://66.147.244.198/~flowerz9/

    I would love a code fix if anyone has suggestions.

    Thanks!

    That theme isn't responsive so it won't resize itself.

    It doesn't do this in the demo though.

    In your CSS file there is a left margin of 230px on #header causing the issue.

    Change to this and you should be fine

    #header {
        background: none repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
        margin: 0 auto 10px;
        min-height: 105px;
        overflow: hidden;
        width: 960px;
    }

    Thank you! That worked. But now the widget menu is over the header rather than under it like it was before. I would hugely appreciate any help for that issue.
