obsidian Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 first off, just an FYI, but your page really borks in firefox...hate to be the bearer of bad news, but there isn't a good way to do this as you're intending. you can use pseudo-columns and "fake" it with background colors, though. setting up your entire site to a two column CSS layout with your right column being that light blue background, that will help. then, you drop a background-image into the entire body of the site that forces that right column to [i]appear[/i] to go all the way down even when the content of it doesn't stretch that far.

AndyB Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Google for 'CSS faux columns' for details of the CSS background workaround to different column lengths.
