    Hi - Is there a way to modify the cutline theme so the left and right columns will fill down to match the length of the middle column? I have a different background color for for each of these columns.

    I have found other themes that do this, but have not been able to come up with a way to easily modify cutline to do the same. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks.

  2. I used a technique called faux column on my blog at http://soxanddawgs.com

    here is the code.

    #content_box { background:#fff url('images/faux.gif') repeat-y left !important; width: 970px; text-align: left; float: left; clear: both; }

    It took some trial and error to get right as you need to make sure the width matches the numbers you have for px in the sidebars plus the margins I think.

    The gif I created has the color if the sidebar, a transparent middle and then the color of the right sidebar. you can easily create that for different color sidebars.
