Background Color issue

[clayton47]

I have created a containing div and applied a background color of white. When i turn off template names in the admin cp it doesnt wrap all the contents like it does when the "show template names" is enabled. Can anyone look and see whats wrong? texasmx.com/forums the home page of the cms is where the issue is. the forum works except when viewing a thread. but the general thread display views normal. I would really appreciate it.

Seemed like a image rotator in the header perhaps? Post a example of how you modified and implemented this so we can review it.

In my nav bar template I tried to create a containing div with a class of .body_wrapper

.body_wrapper {
background-color: #FFFFFF;
border-radius: 0 0 0 0;
margin: 0 auto;
width: 920px;
}

all I need is a background color of white for all the content between the header and footer. I tried creating a container since I couldnt find anything wrapping everything to target with some css in my additiona.css file

I only know very basic HTML/CSS so I'm hoping someone answers this, because it's one thing that's always puzzled me: when I go to your site and do "inspect element" in FF, your body_wrapper div is only 72px high while the div inside it is 1472px or something like that. Shouldn't the outer div expand to enclose the inner one?

again, this is what I have ran into with working with the vbulletin software for me. Its not as simple as creating other sites from scratch or modifying things. Just have to learn this thing over time. It seems you can do what you want, but going about it has to be done certain ways. I definitely need this corrected. Its all I have left of what I am working on that I cant figure out.

I really appreciate the help from the community!

Hangon making some changes, think I got it with the placement of the content-wrapper. having to reposition things so they look right.
