I just need my coffees!!! O.O
 
But, the reason I've give a picture to the discussion, is just because, 
probably, there is a more simple solution (without columns). to accomplish the 
intended visual effect, that I'm aware of. 
However I now realize that the picture isn't "the all picture", since it 
doesn't represent the fact that, *on same pages, not all, the borders will need 
to have different widths and colors on other pages, however, they will remain 
similar*.
 
On the link provided, I believe we can change the borders width (by moving the 
columns), but we cannot change the border color. (?)
 
On one hand, I can't find a proper solution, and don't have the knowledge to 
create one.
On the other hand, I don't believe that, visually speaking, my request is so 
extravagant that no one have give a thought on this before.

By the worst, I can create extra two divs and repeat-y a 1px back image, and a 
3px grey image on those divs. But aside from the "no-semantic approach" that 
I'd like to avoid, this "pseudo-solution" is not the best to maintain either, 
(since it requires the draw and cut graphics, from time to time).


To more properly describe it, here is a new version, with no equal heights but 
with different borders:

Extra motivation to lower the level of some tiredness over my frequent emails: 
"I will post a link for list.css-discuss on the thanks page of this site. A BIG 
ONE. HUGE. Fancy. Well... not that fancy because, in that case, I need to send 
yet another request to the list... :)"
