Hi John,
I’m not sure that I understand what you intend… Do you really want the
content of the header/footer to stretch all the way across the width of the
browser?
If you do, your page construction is all wrong. The best way I know to is
to rely on inline construction methods, an example which can be found here…

Ernie,
Thank you for your response,
I was under the impression my construction was of the “in line” method. I have been trying to learn how this is accomplished and thought i had solved it, but apparently not.
My last Forum contribution in regard to In Line Construction suggested that my methodology was OK.

The first problem is your Page is set to align Center. This makes your
master div - the PageDiv - only 900px wide. So every child of the master
div is only capable of 900px width.
Setting your Page to align None and the PageDiv will be as wide as the
browser.
With the page align set properly you first draw a page container
(“PageWrap” in my example). The first inserted div is the Header-Wrap with
no fixed width so it can fill the width of the page. Inside the Header-Wrap
div is inserted the Header div - which you can make as wide or narrow as
you like and is centered by setting the margin to center in the Inspector.
You can repeat this process for the Navigation, Content, and Footer
sections of the layout,
I’ve whipped up an example here:

Ernie,
Thank You , I obviously do not understand something very basic about in-line/box models…
So i think i will go back to the drawing board so to speak.

I’ve done some more work on my example - hopefully it will help make it
clear.

Inline is not only a “part of” or “a sidestep”. Either you do it or you leave it (including all negative things roundabout). As I started with it, I had a strong visual guide which was the most important thing to challenge.
No - it is not free, but… (…should it be?)

Thomas’ screencasts are excellent and I highly recommend them all,
including this one.
