Question about Responsive theme

Hello,

I have a question about the responsive theme which you can find on wordpress.org. The question is about
the footer, how do you expand the footer width so it fits the whole browser window, currently it is contained
in the containter div.
I have tried #footer {width:100%;} but it doesn’t seem to work
Below is the screenshot of what I am talking about

Any help greatly appreciated
thanks

you will have to dig into the footer.php and move the <footer> or footer div outside of the container. its really the only way as when you set width 100% it will expand to 100% of its container element

you will also probably need to insert a container div within the footer to center the contents to align with the container while stretching the band the full width
