webguync Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 hello all,on a site I am working on (http://www.ncpersonalinjurylaw.com/php/Adams.php), my third column (the grey one) isn't extending down to the footer on its own. The third column is being called 'right_col' and the CSS specific to that column is:#right_col {/*creates right column on page*/width:155px; padding:0 ;margin:0;background-color:#ccc;color:inherit;float:right;}* html div#right_col {/*creates right column on page, only IE sees this*/width:150px; padding:0 ;margin:0;background-color:#ccc;color:inherit;float:right;}I know that that in itself doesn't tell you much so the full CSS can be located at:http://www.ncpersonalinjurylaw.com/php/CSS/Global.cssI do want to point out that I was able to achieve equal columns using JS (the PVII equal columns technique), but I would prefer to get this working w/o JS. Also with the equal columns, things got "messed up" when I resized the text.I have tried adding height :100% to the third columns div without success.Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciative.

actionsketch Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 Well, I'm sorry but diving into your lines of css isnt very appealing to me right now =p. But I can tell you that this is a common problem and not easily fixed. Here's an idea though... height: inherit; You'll have to rearrange your code a little I'm sure, but it would be clean. Unfortunately IE doesnt support inherit yet, so you might not want to use it after all =/. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
