Extend CSS DIv Background to footer

Report · May 16, 2007

I am just learning CSS layouts using DW CS3. The new skeleton pages provided are a great help. I am trying to modify the "two colimn liquid with header & footer. I want to be able to have sidbar1's background to extend down to the footer when when the data mainContent extends down past the height of sidebar1. I have tried making sidebar1's height 100% but that has new effect. I also tried using a background image to force a height of at least 800px, but that didn't work either. Anybody know how to make this happen??????
