How can I make my site fill the browser height

How can I make my site fill the browser height.

As it is now it fills the browser's width. I repeat a 1-pixel vertical line
to fill-in the sides.

I put a border about the html and the body and I see they both end at the
bottom of my footer image.

I think I need to extend the body to the bottom of the browser.

I'd like to color the browser area below the footer to match my scheme.

Got any suggestions??


Thank

Simple, (I think)
html {

height: 100%;

background-color:#c3d7ec;

}

or maybe



html, body {

height: 100%;

background-color:#c3d7ec;

}



Are these different.

One better than the other?
