Background Disappearing on Horizontal Scroll

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Minimise your browser window to 800x600 or less, then slid the horizontal
scrollbar across to reveal the overflowing content, and you see background
color disappear on footer, header and menu.

This happens on both 0.7 and 0.8 on Windows, in every browser

I've found this hack:

<div id='footer'> 
    <div id='narrow_display_fix'> 
        content goes here… 
    </div> 
</div> 

div#narrow_display_fix { 
    width: 926px; 
    background-color:#eaeaea; 
    }

as chris has wrote on the forum, the min-width hack works. but it has to be 
applied
to body, #footer and #header.

Fixed in Revision 282: if you don't use one of the provided layouts, you need to
integrate the min-width fix in your style.css
