There are a number of ways to do that. One is a CSS Table [looks like
a table but its not].
Please see:

[css-d] Background color for 3 column layout

[J.C. Berry]

Hi all,
I have a three-column layout, all three of which have a white background.
The page background is black and I need the div containing the three
columns to expand with its white background down the page. I need the
longest of the three columns (2 or 3) to determine how high the containing
div is. I also have footer that clears the three columns fine. How can I do
this? Thanks!
