Hi, I’m using the DW **template 2 column fixed, left sidebar, header and footer**. I’ve now decided that I want the sidebar1 div tag to reach the bottom of the footer rather than float depending on what information is in it. This way I can fill it will a solid colour rather than add a img background which will run across the whole content div. Can this be done or would it require starting from stratch?

Also want a watermark to appear in the content div only so needs to float depending on the info on the page.

Please provide as much detail as poss. Ta
