Here is the site in question: www.prestigedesigns.com
The problem is that my header and footer won't stretch to their assigned 100% but only on iPhone/iPad.
I've tried what I think is everything and I could really use some help? Is there anyone else that has a similar issue?
Thanks.

It seems like this should be one of the easiest things to understand in CSS. If you want a block-level element to fill any remaining space inside of its parent, then it's simple — just add width: 100% in your CSS declaration for that element, and your problem is solved.
Yes, as per the CSS 2.1 Specification, all non-negative values are valid for width, that includes percentage values above 100%.
if you specify width:100%, the element's total width will be 100% of its containing block plus any horizontal margin, padding and border.
Displaying properties in Safari There is a CSS appearance property used to display an element using a platform-native styling based on the users' operating system's theme. To make it work on Safari, we must set the appearance property to its "none" value. Also, use -WebKit- and -Moz- vendor prefixes.
It's kind of a viewport issue with mobile Safari, but you can get the same effect by shrinking the width of your desktop browser window and scrolling right, you'll see your background starts dropping out.
This is because when you're setting width:100% to your #top and #header divs, you're telling them to resize to the width of the containing element, which in this case is the browser window, (or viewport). You're not telling them to resize to the content within.
Mobile Safari's default viewport width is 980px, so it uses 980px as the width of the containing element for your divs. This is why your layout, which is around 1050px, is getting its background chopped off.
You can fix this for mobile Safari by directly setting its viewport (read Apple's Docs), or by adding min-width:width of your design in pixels; to your body. Mobile Safari will use the min-width's value for setting its viewport, and it'll also keep it from happening in desktop browsers as well.
