 * Hi guys, bit of a noob with CSS and i’m having problems positioning my content.
   I’m trying to make a new full width page template. I removed the side bar however
   I cant position my content.
 * [THIS IS HOW IT CURRENTLY LOOKS](http://i.imgur.com/aIoj4cy.png)
 * I would like the content in the center in line with the banners. Also I need 
   to make the content width bigger the style CSS doesnt seem to change it?
 * My current css:
 * #content-fullwidth {
    padding-top: 0px; position:relative; left:500px; }
 * I’ve had the content all over the page with my poverty css but when I did get
   it in place it would change location when you changed the window size 🙁

 * Problem solved, I changed
    `<div id="main" class="ninecol first clearfix" role
   ="main">` in the widepage template php to `<div id="main" class="widecol first
   clearfix" role="main">`
 * Then I added the following into the css:
 *     ```
       .widecol {
         width: 100.0%;
       }
       ```
