 * Ok, so I’ve just spent the past night and this morning searching high and low
   trying to figure this out. I’ve found multiple answers and none of them seem 
   to lead me to the right avenue.
 * the blog is here [http://www.smeep.me.uk](http://www.smeep.me.uk)
 * As you can see, I want it in my frame (yes, I know, frames suck!) but I can not
   for the life of me figure out how to remove the gaping blue-grey rectangle left
   by the header.
 * I removed all the images, as you can see and disabled the text.
 * I went through style.css and rtl.css to find all references to the header, and
   changed and height px down to zero.
 * I removed parts of tags that various guides along the way have advised me to,
   yet this thing is still here!
 * _Surely_ there should be just a simple option somewhere, to click “remove header”?
 * I want this thing gone for good 🙂

 * Using firebug on your site this worked for me:
 * In style.css
 * Find:
 *     ```
       #header {
       margin: 0 0 0 1px;
       padding: 0;
       height: 0px;
       overflow: hidden;
       border-bottom: 0px;
       width: 740px;
       position:relative;
       left:9px
       }
       ```
   
 * Replace with:
 *     ```
       #header {
       display:none;
       }
       ```

 * Oh.
    my, Good neSs.
 * Hehe, thank you so much! Is firebug some sort of webdev tool that finds bad code?
   I may have to look in to that!
 * I can’t thank you enough! 😀

 * Glad I was able to assist.
