I have a two column layout, with my menu div box on the left and content div box on the right. I would like them to remain the same height regardless of the amount of data in one or the other.
I tried using "height: 100%;" , and I thought that it worked before. It does not seem to be working now.
Am I doing this correctly, or is there a better way?
AFAIK the height property cannot be relied on, so you can attach a background image the same colour as your original background to make the columns extend to 100% using the 'repeat' instruction.
Of course the image has to be the exact width of your columns.
Example-
background-image: url(images/left_black_panel.gif); background-repeat: repeat-y; background-position: top left;
