Newbie Question - How to Get a Background Color From the Top to Bottom?

Hi

I have a different background color in my sidebar but it's only halfway down the page. I want to make it so that the color goes all the way down the page.

You can see an example by going to http://www.dateunknown.com.

I'm sure this is pretty simple and only requires a code in the stylesheet.

Please advise.

 

You're using DIV's and floats, div's cannot be made of equal height. You either need to use faux columns - a background image applied to a DIV wrapping both columns set to wrap floats - or switch back to tables since TD's are the only elements that can dynamically size to the same height as each-other.

That said you've got bigger 'problems' in there - like 165 validation errors pretty much making it so what you have is NOT html, but gibberish. 44k of markup for 4k of content (easily five times what should be used), inlined CSS, inlined scripting, completely absurd number of div's and classes for such a simple layout, etc, etc... You'd almost think it was a turdpress template saddled with that stupid jquery nonsense - OH WAIT!!!

 

LOL, you're a psycho. But I like that, and if you're willing - I will pay you to fix everything you just stated. PM me with a quote.
