Okay I got them to show side-by-side and the menu to go inline by adjusting the placement of the extra header in the header.php file. However, now the menu bar and body have blown out to full width rather than staying at 980px and there appears to be some kind of border around the logo/banner container. Any suggestions on how to limit the properties of the nav bar and the body of the site to 980px again?
