Pat, When you use height: 100% you have to ask yourself the question "what is it 100% of?" Since you did not specify the height of the containing element or the body, the browser can't calculate the height.
Here is an example of two floated divs, with a height of 100%, inside of a fixed height container: http://www.jimdavis.org/test/heights.html This approach would only work if you were certain the content would always fit vertically within the specified height of the container, or use one of the overflow rules to deal with the additional content. To accommodate an unknown height it is common to use the faux columns technique.
