A 'float' container will only expand to fill its content (Content controls its space from the inside to the outside).

What you need is a container that will controls its space from the outside > in.
Try the following:

        #column1
        {
                display:table-cell;
                /* float: left;*/
                width: 565px;
        }
        #column2
        {
                display:table-cell;
                /* float: right;  */
                width: 185px;
                height: 100%;
                background-color: #828282;
background-image: url(/_resource/image/concept03/layout-4-concept-3_09.jpg);
                background-repeat: repeat-y;
                background-position: left;
        }

I have a page on

http://testing.icanmls.pacificfox.com/concept03/

it validates!

I have a main div and two divs in there that float, I'm expecting the left floating div to always dictate the height of the right floating div, so I set the right floating div to
height: 100%;

But it does not stretch all the way till the bottom. Does anyone know why?
