I am not sure I understand the layout, but in any case as a side note, the <header> and <footer> elements are HTML5 so if you want to style them in IE <9, you'll have to include the HTML5Shiv. Unlike other browsers, IE will not style unknown elements by default.

@ LastMitch there are a few left over style elements that do not need to be there try taking them out.
First the php in the footer tag, background-reapeat:norepeat in,header,centerbody div.@JorgeM Thanks for the heads up i didnt take any of the styling opcode into consideration due to just being a local project. As it stands its cheap,but you can build of it i say!

Ok here is an updated version of my custom layout.
May I ask what are you doing?
This is not good organized code snippet.
The website shouldn't have a scroll bar going rightward, if the scroll bar is downward is fine but not like this:

As far as I am aware, <header> and <footer> are to be used inside <body>.
