I don t know if this what you want but try to remove overflow  hidden from  wrap

User · Answer

You could set both left and right property to 0  This will make the div stretch to the document width  but requires that no parent element is positioned  which is not the case  seeing as  header is position  relative     site nav global primary           position  absolute      top  0      left  0      right  0      Demo at  http   jsfiddle net xWnq2   where I removed position relative  from  header

You need to add position relative to  wrap element   When you add this  all child elements will be positioned in this element  not browser window
