I think that this is the problem. The background will not extend beyond the
boundaries of the element they are on. If you add a border to the <p> style
as follows:

border: 1px #0000FF solid;

You will see that this is what is currently happening. The border gets to
the edge of the <p>, and then stops. The easiest way to fix this would be to
add that closing quote to the containing box along with the background
colour.

Cheers,

Seona.
