How do I get my sidebar image repeat (no matter how much content it has) so that it goes all the way to the footer? I'm going crazy trying to figure it out. This is what the layout looks like:

Short answer: You can't with CSS. But you can use a repeating background image to simulate it.

Thanks; it was CSS. I tried using that but the same problem occurs..the side bar still won't repeat:
CODE .container {
float: left; overflow: hidden; width: 100%; margin: 0 auto; } #content { background: url(images/content.gif) repeat-y; float: left; width: 65%; margin-top: 32px; padding-left: 15px; padding-right: 30px; padding-top: 10px; padding-bottom: 30px; min-height:100%; } #sidebar { background: url(images/sidebar.gif) repeat-y; width: 10%; min-height: 100%; margin-top: 32px; margin-left: -228px; padding-left: 15px; padding-right: 30px; padding-top: 10px; padding-bottom: 30px; float: left; } |

Background-repeat will based on the height of its parent. Try to pud a height on it
