Andy
Thanks
OK I understand -
This is what I was thinking of using because it filled the columns
with color -
/* CSS Document */
body {
background:#9343B9;
text-align:center;
margin:20px;
padding:0;
font:normal 0.8em/1.2em verdana,aria,sans-serif;
color:#666;
}
a {
color:#FFF;
text-decoration:none;
border-bottom:1px dotted;
}
a:hover {
border-bottom:1px solid;
color:#9343B9;
}
#wrapper1 {
position:relative;
text-align:left;
width:100%;
background:#FFF url("../images/rightcolor_bg.gif") repeat-y top
right;
}
#wrapper2 {
position:relative;
text-align:left;
width:100%;
background:url("../images/leftcolor_bg.gif") repeat-y top left;
}
#header {
background:#BB62AB;
padding:10px;
margin:0;
text-align:center;
color:#FFF;
}
#header h1 {
font-size:200%;
}
#header a:hover {
color:#7A2875;
}
#maincol {
position:relative;
margin:0;
padding:10px;
}
#leftcol {
position:relative;
top:-10px;
left:-10px;
float:left;
width:220px; /* for IE5/WIN */
voice-family: "\"}\"";
voice-family:inherit;
width:200px; /* actual value */
margin:0 0 -10px 0;
padding:10px;
background:#ECB9E8;
z-index:100;
}
#rightcol {
position:relative;
top:-10px;
right:-10px;
float:right;
width:220px; /* for IE5/WIN */
voice-family: "\"}\"";
voice-family:inherit;
width:200px; /* actual value */
margin:0 0 -10px 0;
padding:10px;
background:#D7C4FA;
z-index:99;
}
#centercol {
position:relative;
padding:0 240px;
}
#centercol a {
color:#666;
}
#centercol a:hover {
border-bottom:1px solid;
color:#9343B9;
}
#footer {
position:relative;
top:1px;
background:#7A2875;
width:100%;
clear:both;
margin:0;
padding:1% 0;
text-align:center;
color:#CCC;
}
