 * I’m sure this has been answered before but I simply can’t find the answer posted
   and I can’t find the right documentation.
 * I want to resize my main blog portion of my window to automatically resize to
   the full width of the screen. I’m using the standard theme from the basic wordpress
   2.0 installation. I tried editing width tags but only the title of my page resized
   and the rest of the page didn’t.
 * Thanks a lot.

 * I don’t know the default 2.0 CSS, but generally, you would look in the stylesheet
   for elements acting as containers (in order)
 * `html > body > [#container1] > [#container2] ...`
 * and if you see a declared `width`, change it to `width: auto`.
 * But stop before you get to elements styled as floated columns (such as `#sidebar`).
   For those, you would set percentage widths and margins.
 * Can you link to the stylesheet?
