Question

I have an element that I need so span across the whole screen.

It need to be static positioned because it needs to be in the flow of elements but setting the width to 100% doesn’t cover the screen.

I could make it absolute positioned and then set the left and right properties to 0 and it would cover the screen, but then the element would be taken out of the flow of DOM elements and mess it up.

How can I make a static positioned element span the whole screen?

If you dont need the margin in body you can use:
Body{margin:0;}
