Thanks for your response. The problem I'm having is not the look of the links.  
I wanted to have a header section of the page that contained all of the things 
in that section.   I finally gave up on that and used this html:
<div id="header">       
        <div id="newnav">
                <ul>
                        <li><a href="#">Link 1</a></li>
                        <li><a href="#">Link 2</a></li>
                        <li><a href="#">Link 3</a></li>
                        <li><a href="#">Link 4</a></li>
                        <li><a href="#">Link 5</a></li>
                        <li class="searchForm">Search: <input type="text" size="20" /> <input type="image" 
src="images/button-go.gif" name="go" /></li>
                </ul>
        </div>    
</div>
<div id="topClass">UNCLASSIFIED</div>
<div id="decorate1"></div>

I applied a background image to #header and another one to #decorate1 and used 
absolute positioning for #topClass to achieve the look I wanted. Everything 
flexes and it works fine.  I'm just disappointed that I couldn't put everything 
in a container.  Maybe that's not important.

Michael,

I don't understand why you couldn't put everything in a container, nor what is wrong with the markup above. What was the problem that you saw when you tried to put everything in a container? And why did you want to put everything in a container in the first place?

A link to the page with the problem would probably be helpful.
