I was able to get my navigation bar to span the content box on one site that I made http://lifecoachdrew.com , but on my new site, I downloaded the beta version of thesis 1.6 beta 2 and the code I had previously used doesn't seem to be working anymore. Do you have any ideas? Do I just need to wait for a tweak to be make to the beta version? Thank you for your ideas on this page-they have been very helpful.
