CSS Sticky footer with 100% width

Question

I'm trying to implement a sticky footer having a 100% of width. It should be stick on the bottom of the page, but not overlapping the page content div. I'm using the page layout identical to this example: http://peterned.home.xs4all.nl/examples/csslayout1.html

As you can see, the footer has the same width of div#container. But I want to stretch the footer up to 100% width, whilst the page content stays centered and keeps stretching in height when resizing the browser. How can I do that?
