I have just added some content and stil this background color isnt sticking to footer... can anyoen help?

 

 

[vekia]

what is the height of the left column? and height of the center block? values of height are the same? or different?

[sickshot]

there is not set any height...

#left_column, #center_column, #right_column { float: left;   }

#left_column {
clear: left;
width: 215px;
margin-right: 21px;
overflow: hidden;
background:#c0c0c0;
}
#center_column {
	width: 764px;
	margin: 0 0 30px 0;
	overflow: hidden
}

[vekia]

yeap i understand that there is no height defined, but im asking about real height of this column, are you able to check it? with browser webdeveloper tools? im asking because your website is under maintenance mode right now and i cant access

[sickshot]

theres only shows - height: 100% - i couldnot find any specific height.

 

i Have turned on the website http://mukadowines.ge  please check if you have time....

[sickshot]

Try to add this:

padding-bottom: 500em;
margin-bottom: -500em;

to left_column and center_column
