how to get the header background to go all the way across

[abigailpage]

I'm using the Sample Child Theme and I'm wondering how to get a background color for just the header that spans all the way across the page... any help would be appreciated! The site is at alwayslookagain.com - I want a strip of white as the background for the header and going all the way through to the edges of the page.

You can add background: #fff; to this section...

#header {
margin: 0 auto;
min-height: 125px;
width: 100%;
}

I have tried that; I have it edited that way right now with no dice :/

I'm trying to get it to look like this.

I still see this in your CSS:

#header {
margin: 0 auto;
min-height: 125px;
width: 100%;
}

You need to add background: #fff; to make the background white.  It should look like this:

#header {
background: #fff;
margin: 0 auto;
min-height: 125px;
width: 100%;
}

Are you using the custom header feature?  And does your header image have a transparent background?
