Do you mean what I wrote above? Yeah, I did that on purpose so that the post doesn't show the html. On the actual web page of course I had the "" opening brace or else nothing would have worked at all.
Sorry. I assumed that the post itself showed enough knowledge of html that anyone reading it would assume that I knew enough to make a correct tag. I should have noted that I was purposefully leaving out the first brace so that the html would not render here. My apologies if it through you off.
Try using the [code][/code] pseudo-tags that most forums offer you. You could also enter it directly but replace the angle brackets with their meta-character equivalent; for example I can display angle brackets < > by entering this: < >
That combined with some previewing to make sure you got it right will give a more understanding post.

Anyways, about the horizontal rules you were trying to make. You can easily use negative margins in this case for your rule; make them equal to the body margins and that should be it.
Also, horizontal rules are block elements, so you don't have to defined the width at all. In fact you shouldn't to prevent possible cross-browser incompatibilities.
