    Hi, I am having trouble figuring out how to get these two areas to be the same length, regardless of the content. I have used a background image in the sidebar menu area, which also contains widgets. It would be nice if the background image could fill the length of the area. Or, I am open to an alternative method. I did try using a gradient fill from the Theme Options but it still did not fill the area properly. Can you help me out? Thanks!

    #header_main .container {
    background-image: url(“http://dlcmed.rushforthdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/main-menu-bg.jpg”);
    }

    Hey KarenRushforth!

    Please try

    #header_main .container {
background-image: url(“http://dlcmed.rushforthdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/main-menu-bg.jpg”) repeat-x;
}

    let me know if that worked as should.

    Cheers!

    Hi,
    No, that did not work at all. Image is not showing at all, it shows only the body background.

    Hey!

    use this code instead:

    #header_main .container {
background: url(https://dlcmed.rushforthdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/main-menu-bg.jpg) no-repeat;
}

    Regards,

    That does not work. The main content container and the sidebar menu do not make themselves the same length. The main content container adjusts according to how much content is in there. The sidebar menu should adjust to the length of the main content container. The footer should span the width of the sidebar menu and main content container and show below both areas.

    Hey!

    hm? I don’t understand what you want to show me with that screenshot. Before my code your menubar looked like this:

    When implementing my code your menubar looks like this:

    I thought these changes are what it’s all about? What else do you want to achieve?

    Regards,
    Andy
