Because the two columns in your “chunk2” DIV are positioned absolute, they’re taken out of the flow of the document, which basically means that they will have no impact whatsoever on other elements on the page. Hence, #chunk2 won’t expand with the two columns it has, because it doesn’t “see” them (being positioned absolute).

Get rid of the absolute positioning for those two columns and float them (either both left, or one left and one right). You may have to give #chunk2 overflow:hidden; for clearfix purposes as well.
