changing wrapper color effects inside, not outside

    Hey folks,

    I’m a little perplexed. Using magazine basic, when I change #wrapper, instead of the color changing outside of the content area (extreme sides/behind content/not sure what to call it), it changes the content areas. I just want on either side, where it is currently white, to change.

    I did a search in these forums, and what I found didn’t seem to be the same thing, but it may be that I don’t now the correct term to search.

    my site is https://lynnhappens.com

    Thanks!

  • Try adding:

    html {background:#c00;}

    to style.css – substituting #c00 for the color code of your choice.

    interesting, as your style.css does not contain the css id #wrapper at all.

    for the color outside the ‘center’ (the white area), try to style body { ... }

    @alchymyth: the body is essentially being used as a page wrapper – max-width 1024px. html is the only element left.

    @esmi
    you are right –
    i am working on a standard laptop – couldn’t see the outer region ;-(
