JR Exercise 2 Blog

So, the exercise 2 went pretty well and had little snags. I encountered 1 problem though. I set the banner and the footer to 100 percent but the scrollbar was at the bottom of the page. I realized that if I scrolled right, there would be about an inch of nothingness that extended past my banner and footer. This was because I used relative positioning within my body. This pushed the div space past the 100 percent. I took out the relative positioning and fooled around with it for a long time and messed up the layout of the site so much that I just decided to keep the empty space to the side. On face (without scrolling right) the page looks identical to the one that we were given. I figure that the empty space to the side is better to have than messing up the entire layout of my page. It works anyway.
