 * I have a problem with my background on a single page. For example: [http://www.dakzoekje.nl/v2/?p=13](http://www.dakzoekje.nl/v2/?p=13),
   you can see that the background on the bottom is gone. I tried several things
   but nothing works. You can find the css here: [http://www.dakzoekje.nl/v2/wp-content/themes/default-empty/style.css](http://www.dakzoekje.nl/v2/wp-content/themes/default-empty/style.css)

 * I can see it in (my browser of choice) Opera: the content background displays
   down to the bottom of the submit button (it says “Plaats”), then breaks for the
   rest of the length of the middle column. Then comes the footer.
 * I’ve run into this before. Don’t quote me on this, but I *think* it’s occurring
   because the two right columns are probably floated (and, if the middle column
   wasn’t so long, you likely wouldn’t see a problem).
 * As I recall, the way I solved it was to add a div at the bottom of the sidebar
   that cleared the two right-side floats:
 * `div#fakediv {clear:both}`
    and `<div id="fakediv">&nbsp;</div>`

    When i put ‘<div id=”
   fakediv”> </div>’ at the bottom of sidebar.php the extra menu (extra.php) disappears.

 * Davey, I would try moving it around, just to see what happens. It’s a quick fix,
   if it works.

 * Well, I guess I tried to put it everywhere it can. And when i think it works 
   the extra menu is gone.
