Blue area doesn't cover entire class secondary

Hi.

I followed Guil's instructions to the letter but the blue area doesn't cover the whole of .secondary at desktop width.

I'd appreciate any help.

The "footer" section should come after the "container" div.

So the closing </div> tag on line 54 of the snapshot should probably be on line 50 instead.

The pale blue area isn't intended to cover the secondary area or any other portion of the container.

But it looks like you may have a closing </div> tag out of place and the footer is currently inside the container.

Hi Steven.

Thanks for replying.

So are you saying the footer shouldn't be in the container? And which </div> tag is out of place?

That worked perfectly. I've upvoted both your posts and given your second post Best Answer.

Thank you Steven
