Hi, this is a typical problem with floated columns. Here's what should
be happening:

You have 2 columns in a container, and the left column is the longest.
When you float the left column, it "flows out" of the container, so
right now the container is only as long as the main content div, which
is why the background stops mid way on the page. The way to make a
container recognize a float, is to have something after the float that
clears it... then the container must stretch to accomodate the
clearing element, which is below the float.

The easiest way to fix this, in your case, is to put the footer (id
info-site) inside the container with the background image. When the
footer clears the left column, it will also cause the container to
stretch the full length.

If that doesn't solve your problem let me know.
