Coloring sections

[godonholiday]

I am trying to get the top part of the site to have a dark gray color, I can get it so that it looks like the image below

But I want the gray color to go down to line up with the header or even to the bottom of the page and link with the footer. I want the middle to stay that white color.

Any ideas?

Cheers,
Oh and I am still having some trouble positioning a monster on the left hand side of the page, not sure which php page to put the div for it?

Thanks again for all the earlier help :)

I am not 100% sure on this, but the top and the top nav are all background styles with #231f20 as the color. The header image just has the color in it. I think the footer if getting the color from the page style?

Thanks for having a look.

I have set the background color for the page. Here are my layout styles, this is the color :#231f20
/*========= LAYOUT =========*/

#page{
width: 960px;
background-color: #231f20;
margin:15px auto;
border: 1px solid #CCCCCC;
position: relative;
}
/*— Main Columns —*/
#columns{
padding:15px 15px 25px;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
margin: 0px;
}
.col1{
float: left;
width: 595px;
padding-right:15px;
}
.col2{
float: left;
width: 320px;
position: relative;
}
/*— Sub Columns —*/
.subcol{
width: 150px;
}
.subcol h2{
font-size: 14px;
padding: 0 0 10px;
color: #FFFFFF;
}
#side {
position: relative;
}

/*========= HEADER =========*/

A link to the site?
http://www.learnitpassiton.com/ABC

a link to the html? is it not readable in source view? If not should I link to each php page?

I think if I create a div and set the color, I will loose thw white in the middle of the page? or would I haveo play with the z-index?

thanks

Well thanks for the help!
