Hi Rutgers,

The solutuion with background-image will function only,
if the left navigation and the contents (on the right of it)
are having a common parent element.
This common parent element should have the background-image.


Example:

div header /div

   div !-- body with background-image --

 div left navigation /div
 div contents /div

   /div !-- end of body --

div footer /div


regards,
Uwe Kaiser

 Hi,
 
 This is an issue in MSIE/PC, FF/PC etc.
 Please increase/decrease the font-size -- and you will see.
 
 
 I didn't look at your source, but normaly the solution in
 such case consists in using a background-image.
 (eg.width: 2000px, height: 4px,  repeat-y)
 The grey part at left should be as wide as the left nav.
 
 
 
   width of leftnav in px
 ---
 | color: grey  | transparent

  ---  2000px

[css-d] Space below left nav

The page in question is http://www.otima.ca/blogs/default2.php which I
have now separated the css into two files core.css and secondary.css ...
much easier to read and modify.

Thanks in advance for your help.
