Hi all,

I've got this design that requires equal height columns *and*
background images positioned at the bottom of each column.



The heights are fluid, the widths is fixed.


The "Companion column method"...

...allows for background images both at the top and bottom.

And then there are CSS tables ... (sight)...

Re: [WSG] Equal Height Columns/OTL background images

2007-09-20 Thread Jixor - Stephen I
I have used a technique where the side column sits inside the main 
column. The main column's background will then form the background for 
either column and therefore even if the sides column is longer than the 
main content the background will not be broken and vice versa.

the One True Layout Equal Height Columns technique, but can't for the
life of me figure out how to prevent a bottom-aligned background image
from disappearing into the 30thousand pixel padding void the technique
depends upon.

The heights are fluid, the widths is fixed.

Am I barking up the wrong tree?

Any help appreciated!
