The quick fix is #banner { width: 600px;  } if that's what you're after.

However, I think that the way the top section is put together is a bit  
unusual. The markup and CSS could be simplified. e.g. What is the  
point of #logo? It just wraps a link and image. Why is #banner set to  
be positioned absolutely? Why use a background image where background  
colour would do? etc. Just my 2c! You may just want to fix it with the  
rule above and move on.
