I am modifying Twenty Ten, which might not be a good idea in the first place
Correct. Don’t edit the Twenty Ten theme. Instead create a child theme for your customisations. Once your child theme is active, we should be able to help with the customisation.
Sorry, I should have qualified. I’ve created a child theme based on Twenty Ten, and placed it in sub directory.
Okay, figured out the wrapper issue, just needed to create a second instance of the wrapper ID.
Still stuck on the white space between the banner and the menu….this one has me stumped.
when you edited header.php to remove the site-title, you have likely forgotten to remove:
</<?php echo $heading_tag; ?>>
this left-over code would close the #branding div prematurely and add an extra closing div to the header, which will break the design.
I don’t believe I actually edited the PHP file, but rater I removed the CSS for the site-title. Might this still be the problem however?

the html output clearly shows that the php code in header.php was edited; i.e. most of the title code is missing.
if you like, you can paste the code of header.php into a http://pastebin.com/ and post the link to it here.
Hello,
Below is my header.php and my style.css
header.php: http://pastebin.com/mgMRy5Ep
style.css: http://pastebin.com/JYBJL25H
the </div>
in line 60 is wrong (i.e. needs to be removed, afaik) – the #branding div is properly closed in line 73.
OMG it worked. alchymyth you are wonderful!
I never thought to look in my PHP files. Was always told to resist doing much editing in the PHP files…especially in regards to editing style.
I may not be done with you yet…I’d like to add a CSS shadow to my “wrapper”. Last time I tried this, the shadow did not apply my menubar and footer.
I am looking at making my footer containers look different from my sidebar containers. Is this this as simple as creating a new style in the CSS? I once thought I found a thread on this…perhaps someone can steer me there. Thanks!

yes –
if you start the new styles with #footer-widget-area
then they should be specific enough to be different from the sidebar.
examples:
#footer-widget-area .widget-container { border-color: #edf123; }
#footer-widget-area .widget-title { color: #123edf; background-color: #edf123; }
Again, thank you. I’ve had this topic open on another thread and no replies thus far. Now I can get to work…
