Re: [WSG] Issues with min-height?

Sarah,

Min-height looks a bit like a lost cause in the meantime (although 
others on the list may be able to correct me on this).

To run your colours to the bottom of the screen, put a background 
repeat-y in the body. (Assuming your left margin is a fixed width.)

Your layout displays a bit oddly in Safari 1.2, by the way.

All the best! -Hugh Todd

I'm just learning CSS and I'm have a bit of trouble with min-height and
tableless layouts. I want the content and the sidebar to stretch down 
all
the way to the bottom of the screen. It kind of looks odd when the
content/sidebar's background color just stops in the middle of the 
screen.

[WSG] Issues with min-height?

2004-02-19 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hello, I'm Sarah, and I just joined WSG a few days ago :)

I'm just learning CSS and I'm have a bit of trouble with min-height and
tableless layouts. I want the content and the sidebar to stretch down all
the way to the bottom of the screen. It kind of looks odd when the
content/sidebar's background color just stops in the middle of the screen.

I was trying to fiddle around with the following min-height hacks but
maybe I'm just way over my head here. Any suggestions?
