如何使容器充满整个窗口？

Question

I have a main container in CSS that contains all divs for the page. However, there is a white space of 8px pushing the entire container to the left. Any idea how I can get rid of it, and have the container fit the entire window without white space? If I use "margin-left: -8px" it just creates 8 pixels of white space on the right. Heres the code for the container:

#container {
height: 100%;
width: auto;
position: relative;
background-color: #E6E6E6;
min-width: 960px;
}

Answer 1

Just set margin: 0px; on #container , if that does not work you can set

body {
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}

Answer 2

This is because of the default styles being applied by the browser stylesheet.

There are a few ways you can solve you're problem:

Apply this css rule, which effectively get's rid of any default padding or margin applied to elements.

* {
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
}

Or you could use a css reset stylesheet, which I recommend the most because different browsers handle elements somewhat differently and you want to even the field out so you don't run into any problems later. I recommend Eric Mayers css reset stylesheet it can be found here: http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/css/reset/ and I use it for my own projects.

Answer 3

html, body, #container {margin:0; min-height:100%;}
