Hi Peter I've tried out most of your suggestions and they work great. I haven't tried the one for fixing the varying column lengths yet, but will do that soon.
Thank you very much for you help.

Add .innerwrapper { position: relative;} to the core.css, and change .leftcolh to {...position: absolute; top:0...} in the home.css, and see what that does. That way the <div class="leftcolh"> is positioned relative to what is essentially the bottom of the <div class="underbar">... The positioning is probably causing the the column length problems as well. You could nest another division inside the innerwrapper, but closed before the <div class="leftcolh">. Make the innerwrapper background color the same as the column color and make the background coloe of the nested div white, or whatever. That way the gap between the column and the footer is the same color as the column.
