Adding code into header thats outside the forum width

[NoKSouLz]

Basically i have a forum thats got a funky background that goes down each side of the forum. The forum is set to a specific width so that the images are displayed down the sides as a background.

I have created and setup a bar that contains quick and easy options for users that appears at the very top.

I have coded it in CSS and added it into the Additional CSS template file. I have also added the div codes into the very top of the header.

My bar seems to be limiting to the forums width when i want it to stretch completely across the top of the page 100% width.

I have used a container and set it to 100% width but it seems to be setting 100% of the forums width rather than page width

How would i go about making it 100% page width rather than forum width.

Thanks

place your code in either
"header" = below your vb forum
"footer" = above your vb forum.

I made a few styles, where the forum is fixed center
and i deleted the navbar, and created my own navigation on the site
using CSS, and a "absolute" position..

adding the code in footer after body tag ends.
reason i chose footer, is becourse if someone got small res, they cant see the menu.

but for a background i would def, choose header..

this is a small nav menu i placed "outside" forum

.menupos {
position:fixed;
left:0px;
top:250px;
}
.menuitem {
background-image:url('images/evibus/leftmenu.gif');
width:200px;
position:fixed;
left:0px;
top:260px;
repeat:vertical;
}
.menutext {
padding-left:10px;
}

Menupos = first topleft position for top img.
Menuitem = background for each menuentry
Menutext = tags format for text/links

Code i entered in footer at Line 0

<div class="menupos">
<img src="images/evibus/leftmenutop.gif" />
</div>
<div class="menupos menuitem" >
<ul>
<li class="menutext"> Test </li>
<li class="menutext"> Test </li>
<li class="menutext"> Test </li>
</ul>
</div>

Result in navigation outside forum border : Attachment 115762

Thats the thing tho..

My div coding which is what displays the bar and text and the links is inside the header..

At the very top above everything

Yet it still appears inside the forums width
