    Hey,

    I have a small white block showing at the bottom of my menu but how can I make sure the div expands all the way to get rid of that?

    It should be the "column_left" div that needs editing.

    Web Resources

    Any help is much appreciated, thanks!

    Search for faux columns on this forum or Google it.

    Giving a background color for wrapper solves your problem

    #wrapper {
    width: 980px;
    margin: 10px auto 10px auto;
    background-color:#000000;
    }

    Thanks!

    This will result in the footer having a background colour of black as well, which I assume he does not want. Black will also appear in the content div on pages where the nav is longer than the content.

    As manishk suggested, faux columns are what you need to look in to.
