I am having an issue with my code I've tried many different things over a 3 hour period. Without much success. Any help is appreciated. I am attaching the link and the code. I am trying to get that over flowing div (Side bar) to push down the copyright bg image and sit on top, but not too far, i want the bottom blue bar to be a page cap. I figured i could achieve that with padding once the time has come.

CSS:


#html,body {
margin-top:0;
padding:0;
}

#allContent {
width: 1000px;
background:#FFFFFF;
font-family:arial;
font-size:12px;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
}

#head {
float:center;
width:1000px;
height: 280px;
}

#bodywrapper {
background-image:url(images/lbgbody.jpg);
height:300px;
width:1000px;
float:center;
margin-top:0px;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
}

#sidebar {
background-image:url(images/bgtrans.png);
float:left;
width:265px;
height:1550px;
position:relative;
border: 1px solid;
z-index:1;
padding-top:5px;
padding-left:0px;
}

#sidebartitle {
width:250px;
height:25px;
color:#FFFFFF;
position:relative;
z-index:2;
font-weight:bold;
font-family:arial;
}

#sidebarwrap{
margin-top: 60px;
float:left;
margin-left: 10px;
}

#contentwrap {

float:right;
width:698px;
margin-right:10px;


}
#contenttitle {

width:700px;
height:25px;
position:relative;
z-index:2;
color:#FFFFFF;
font-weight:bold;
font-family:arial;
float:right;


}
#contentmain{
background-image:url(images/bgtrans.png);
height:600px;
width:690px;
float:right;
z-index:1;
position:relative;
border: 0px solid;
padding-top:5px;
padding-left:10px;


}
#footer{
xbackground-image:url(images/lbgfoot.png);
position:relative;
xbackground-repeat:no-repeat;
display: block;
}

#endthepage {

background-image:url(images/lbgfoot.png);
background-position:bottom;
min-height:600px;
padding-bottom:0px;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
}

#subfooter {
height:31px;
padding-top:2px;
background: #104680;
padding-bottom:2px;
}

#linknav {
color:#FFFFFF;
float:left;
border:0px solid;
width:825px;
padding-top:8px;
padding-left:50px;
}
#validation {
float:right;
background:#104680;
width:100px;"
}



#sidebox1 {
width:240px;
background:#FFFFFF:
float:center;
padding-left:8px;
padding-right:0px;
}


"endthepage" is the div containing the footer BG.
"sidebar" is the sidebar that is spilling out.
"frustrated" is how i feel to say the least (haha).. sorry.

Have you fixed the problem or did you just get tired of waiting? If you fixed it, you should edit your first post and ad the Resolved prefix to tell others that a solution has been found (maybe even post it).

To resolve this I have added
margin-bottom: -300px; to my content and sidebar, it pulled the bottom image closer to them.
