 * I asked this question several months ago and now have a second site and want 
   to do this again. Having trouble again.
 * Referencing the original time I posed this question: [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/expanding-the-content-area-of-a-single-page?replies=5](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/expanding-the-content-area-of-a-single-page?replies=5)
 * I have created a second page template, one that does not include a sidebar. The
   actual page content will expand the width of the new content area, however the
   white background does not.

 * Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

 * you can’t change the width of the new content area :
    the white / grey background
   is created with [this image](http://lvrr.org/wp-content/themes/wp_premium/images/container-cbg_red.gif)
   which is repeat to stuck to the article height. you have to modify (create a 
   new) image to modify the background.
