for formatting and css questions, please post a link to your site,

or use a free tool such as firebug to investigate the site structure to find the right css selectors to edit.

at the moment, i see a sidebar – are you going to remove the sidebar site wide?

assuming that the div with the css id #rightcol (the ‘sidebar’) is removed, try to change the width of #maincol to 100%;
in style.css:

#maincol {
	display: block;
	width: 572px;
	float: left;
}

and edit the background image:

did what you told but its still placing the text to the left,removed the sidebar but main content is still not expanding .

i see the content over the full width – clear your browser cache either by pressing the ‘reload’ button a few times, or with ‘CTRL F5’ in windows pcs

This video demonstrates How to do it

Hi i managed to remove the sidebar in the Mantra theme but can somebody tell me how to expand the main content, that it has a layout for the full page?

You have to need to edit the content width in your style.css file:

#content {
 width: 100%;
}
