I've got a page that has a background color for the main container, but for some reason, the color ends just below the header div. The page and the CSS validate in the w3 validators, though, and I have no idea why and I've tried several different fixes.

CSS

body{
    margin:0;
    padding:0;
    line-height: 1.5em;
    background-color: #e5e5dc;
    color: #000;
}

#maincontainer{
    background-color: green;
    width: 98%;
    margin: 0 auto;
    border: 1px solid black;
}

#topsection{
    background-color: transparent;
    height: 90px; /*Height of top section*/
}

#logo{
    background-image: url();
    text-align: center;
    margin: 0 auto;
    width: 100%;
}

#contentwrapper{
    float: left;
    width: 100%;
    background-color: transparent;
}

#contentcolumn{
    margin-right: 230px; /*Set right margin to RightColumnWidth*/
}

#rightcolumn{
    float: left;
    width: 230px; /*Width of right column in pixels*/
    margin-left: -230px; /*Set left margin to -(RightColumnWidth) */
    background-color: transparent;
}

#footer{
    clear: left;
    width: 100%;
    background-color: transparent;
    text-align: center;
    padding: 4px 0;
    border-top: 1px solid black;
}

.innertube{
    margin: 10px; /*Margins for inner DIV inside each column (to provide padding)*/
    margin-top: 0;
}

.error{
    background-image: url("images/misc/scroll.jpg");
    background-position: top left;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
}

a:link, a:visited{
    color: #000;
    text-decoration: none;
}

a:hover, a:active{
    color: #000;
    text-decoration: underline;
}

You are floating #contentwrapper which takes it out of the document flow so #maincontainer no longer contains it.

To contain it, you need to give #maincontainer an overflow attribute (auto should work).

FYI, adding borders to your elements are a good way to debug things like this.

If I understand correctly, this is a well addressed question. See CSS 100% height in ie or http://www.tutwow.com/htmlcss/quick-tip-css-100-height/
