Sidebar Height Question

Is there a way to make your sidebar automatically match the height of your page content? On my one website my sidebar is quite a bit shorter than my content on many pages, and the way I have the website set up it would take a lot of work to restructure the entire website to make it look right. One solution would be to create a table and make the content in one column of the table and the sidebar in the other but I do not want to do that.

Instead if there a css attribute or something that tells the sidebar to match the page content height that would be awesome. Not sure if it can be done through css but if it can please share.

The website this is for is www.onlineunitedstatescasinos.com and if you look at a page that is rather long and the sidebar dissapears from sight when scrolling down the page it just looks funny. If the sidebar background would extend down to the footer it would look a lot better I think.

Thanks for any help.

Just in case you didn`t find these on google:

I`m too lazy to check it out to see if it works, but surely it is what you`re looking for.

by the way, I would not stress too much about it.

if you are just going to fill it with white space there is no point, maybe a css 100% height style might work, an easier option is modify the wall paper to cover it up ..

I am not super worried about it. I just think it will look better and if it is easy enough to do I want to. Otherwise I am not spending to much time on it.
