    What is the use of inside divs? For example:

    I have a pagewrap div but I don’t want to limit the width of my navigation. I want to repeat its background horizontally. Please help me. Thanks.

    There are many reasons one might use this, but if you don’t have reason – don’t use it. That simple really. One example might be if you wanted a background image to go full horizontal width, but wanted the content to maintain a (max) width, you could use the inside div to achieve that.

    Thanks wolfcry911! How can I achieve that? I tried to put inside divs but the BG of my navigation still limiting its width, by the way its just a background-color :( My navigation is inside my pagewrap.

    There it is wolfcry911.
    I want my navigation like css-tricks.com has. The navigation is on top with full width as I resize my window. But the links are wrap like the content.
