I saw your page. you have wrapped your footer and main content inside body and you have given body width:960px;. so the footer taking 100% width of body i.e 960px. To get the desired result don't wrap footer inside body. use different div for footer and main content of the page. And assign the div width:960px; which wrapped main content. Don't give dody width:960px;
