Guest jedski Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Hi, I was wondering if anybody knew if it is possible to have the left column auto fill the height of the web page. My store has a sigle left column, when on homepage the left column goes all the way to the footer where the site doc links are, however when on a product page, where the content is lenghty, the left column stops after it has listed whatever boxes i have there ( sale-items shopping cart etc) I am using dark colours and it looks life a half finished site.... is there a fix for this please...

Guest benfrain.com Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 EDIT: Sorry - only just noticed how old this post was! This is a common problem with current CSS. the 100% height definition simply makes the column big enough to contain whatever is in it. You need to make a cheat that keeps the left column the full height of the page at all times. This can be achieved with a big padding and negative margin.
