Hello, I'm wanting to get the .wrap to go over the Content Area and the sidebar. So I can get the footer under them both.

 

 

<div id="wrapper">
	<header class="site-header">
   		 <div class="head">
    	<h1>HEADER!</h1>
   		 </div><!-- .head --->
    
	</header><!-- #masthead -->
		<div id="wrap">
			<div class="content-area">
				Content Area
			
		</div><!-- .content-area -->
	
		<div id="sidebar">
			Side Bar		
		</div><!-- #sidebar -->
	
		</div><!-- #wrap -->

	<footer id="footer" class="clear">
		<div class="site-info">Side Bar!</div>
		<!-- .site-info -->
	</footer><!-- #colophon -->
</div><!-- #wrapper -->

#wrapper {
	margin: 0 auto;
	width: 1000px;
		
}

.head {
	height: 117px;
	padding-top: 0;
	position: relative;	
}

#logo {
	position: absolute;
	text-align: left;
	top: 0;
}

.menusearch {
	position: absolute;
	right: 350px;
	top: 32px;
	width: 240px;	
}

.searchform {
	background: none repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
	border: 1px solid #00C3E1;
	height: 32px;
	width: 238px;
	margin: 10px 0;
}


#social {
    background: none repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
    float: right;
    padding: 0;
    position: absolute;
    right: 10px;
    top: 40px;
}



#advertise{
	height: 56px;
	margin: 0 auto 65px;
	position: relative;
	z-index: 18;
}


#wrap{
	width: 1000px;
	margin: 0 auto;
	
}

.content-area{
	width: 690px;
	padding:10px;
	float:left;
	color:#FFF;
	background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #000000;
	
}

#sidebar{
	background: #000000;
		color:#FFF;

	float: right;
	margin-left: 20px;
	padding: 30px 10px 10px 10px;
	width: 250px;
}
#footer{
	margin-top: 50px;	
}

#footer .site-info{
	background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #00C;
	color: #FFFFFFF;
	padding: 20px 0;
	text-align: center;		
}

.clear{ clear:both;

 

Use the .clearfix hack next for future references.

 

.clearfix:before,
.clearfix:after {
    content:"";
    display:table;
}
.clearfix:after {
    clear:both;
}
/* For IE 6/7 (trigger hasLayout) */
.clearfix {
    zoom:1;
} 

 

 

You simply wrap all your floated content in a container and give this container the class .clearfix, simple!
