Does anybody know the code to extend my second column automatically to the length of my main column?

Posted by: Rus at February 10, 2004 10:25 PMtheres several ways to go about it .. one is to create vertically tiled background image to create the illusion of colored columns
next
A whole image is no more than a few pixels tall, but when vertically tiled, it creates the colored columns that will flow all the way down to the bottom of the page — regardless of the length of content in the columns
This elementary CSS rule is added to the body element:
background: #E5FAF0 url(../images/whateverimage800.gif) repeat-y 50% 0;
Essentially, we’re making the entire page’s background color green and tiling it vertically only (repeat-y). The 50% 0 bit refers to the positioning of the background image — in this case, 50% from the left side of the browser window (resulting in a centered image) and 0 pixels from the top
