Hello,

I'm a beginner designer in need of assistance.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

I exported a mock up design from photo shop into CSS and it generated a series 
of containers that were absolutely positioned.  I scrapped the absolutely 
positioned containers and created a fixed layout using images and containers 
with background images.  I utilized negative margins and floated containers for 
positioning, but I'm struggling with getting the #sidebar and #maincontent 
containers to expand vertically based on the amount of content in each page.  I 
cleared both #maincontent and #sidebar containers with the #footer, but  If I 
don't specifiy a height for the #sidebar then #maincontent gets knocked out of 
the flow of the document.  I've tried using %height and no height specified 
without any luck.  I'm using IE7 and Firefox 3 browsers for verification and 
both pages were W3C validated.    

Can anyone scan the code for any glaring errors and/or provide suggestions for 
fixing?  I'm thinking the mock up design was sliced incorrectly, but it's more 
likely that I'm a beginner. 

Lastly, do any threads exist that address these type of layout issues?
