I had a similar problem and this is how I solved it:
Suppose you want a header that spans the entire width of the page, and
not simply just the containing box. But, you also want to be able to
align header elements with the elements below contained inside the
container. Remember that CSS is magic, and you can reuse it inside as
many as your home-made divs as you'd like.
<--the extended header with its width set to 100% of the body tag -->
<body>
<div id="theExtendedHeader" style="width:100%;">
<div class="container">
<div class="span-24">
Here is your header content
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="container">
... the rest of your page
</div>
</body>
