Columns That Don't Get Removed from Flow?

[patenaudemat]

Is there anyway to create CSS columns (for example, main page content with a sidebar) that don't get removed from page flow so the background/borders of the container <div> are rendered at the proper height? (Or is there at least an accurate way to estimate the height?).

Thanks in advance!

I'm not 100% sure what you're asking, but I suspect that faux columns (http://www.alistapart.com/articles/fauxcolumns/) might be the answer.

Well, the author of that article is right... that is embarrassingly simple ;)

Thanks!
