}

.box {
  border: 1px red dotted;
}

#side-menu {
  background-color: #2f4050;
  padding: 0px;
}

#side-menu h1 {
  color: #1f3647;
  text-align: center;
  margin: 10px 0px;
  font-size: 25px;
}

  display: table;
  padding: 0px;

And as you can see i am using bootstrap to build my page. Container class is <div class="container-fluid display-table">

The page is supposed to be 100% width but it is having a left and right margins as shown here :

And when i fill the col-md-5with some text that is what i get : enter image description here

Any idea why this is happening ??

Agreed added 100% on display-table will give you your result you are wanting. See screenshot screenshot

I got this working with just adding width: 100% to the table element.

.display-table {width: 100%;}

Hope this solves the issue.
