A perennial problem; apologies if people are sick of this one. I have a
dynamic-width page with stripes on the left and the right; the left
stripe is defined in "body {background:}", while the right stripe is in a
right-floated div.
Has anyone come up with a method to make a right-floated image run the
full height of the document? Both Mozilla and IE(5, probably 6) take
"height: 100%" to mean "100% of the viewport height". Scroll down, and
the stripe just ends there in the middle of the document.
I'm to the point of defining "height: 250%" and such, but that can make
for a heckuva lot of white space at the bottom, depending on font size,
window size, and the phase of the moon. Any better ideas?
Have a look:

stylesheet at ./index_import.css (Warning: kludge zone still in effect!)
I can't decide whether this or the "background: fixed" bug costs me more
hair. Thank heavens I'm not trying to do both....
