I'm trying to edit the Carbon Theme to fit in with the rest of my website at http://ajpicture.net/gallery2/v/Private/. I've run in to a problem where the body of my site is not extending at least to the bottom of the page like it does on all my other pages. Instead it is ending right after the last elements in the gallery. I can't figure out what part of the gallery is causing this currently. Any ideas where I should look?

your strictly sized containing div won't expand with the content.
Try min-width instead of width.

True, and my plan for that is to change the layout of the site more so that it won't ever be wider than my container (so I don't have to deal with IE issues with min-width). But I don't really see this as causing a problem with the height of the center page. My goal is to make the grey strip extend all the way to the bottom of the page (and beyond if the content extends beyond). That works on all my other pages, but on the gallery page there is something preventing it from extending to height 100% and min-height 100% (I used both in two sets of divs to make it work in both IE and in other browsers).

Oh yeah, I'm not done editing the pages yet. I'm still going to make it so that the pictures fall below the album title in a nice two-column row, and the picture pages will all be linearly verticle with an image width of no more than 600px. I may change the widths of the site later. This is an alpha version and I'll have to research what percentage of people would be viewing a page at 800px wide or consider making it dynamic. But for now I need to fix the height issue.

I don't suppose this could be caused by an extra/missing </div> ? I'll be back tonight!
