Full Width Header

[adaml44 1]

I've got a page that's full width with canvas. I like this, and want to keep it. It's easy to tinker with, and very close to what I want the final product to be. However, I'd like to try having the header (and probably the nav bar) full-width. I've read the threads on here, and it seems like I have to write a hook to do this. My problem is that I don't know how to do hooks (I've read the docs on it, but it makes absolutely no sense to me, to the point where I couldn't even answer what I don't understand about it). From searching the forums, it seems like this is a fairly common request. Is there any way anyone who knows hooks could say "copy and paste this into your functions.php, and copy and paste this into the CSS"? I've gotten a lot of help on here so far, which has been great, and I've done even more self-help so as to avoid asking too much. But I'm not prepared to or really capable of learning a whole new branch of programming to do this (that's why I bought the theme that labeled itself as a"drag and drop"). If someone could help me with this, I'd really appreciate it, as would many others since this appears to be a relatively common request. Pretty please? btw, the site is www.adamlillylaw.com

This past forum topic isn't about making the header and full-nav full width, but it goes into specifics about implementing a hook and CSS to go with it: http://www.pagelines.com/forum/discussion/12248/replace-search-bar-in-header-with-an-image/p1. Perhaps it can shed more light on how hooks should be added. If the topic's instructions aren't clear to you, more assistance can be provided.
