Need CSS help! (2.1b using embed-friendly theme)

Zhaan

Good evening, CSS gurus! I'm a novice seeking some help.

My sidebar has a slightly different background colour than the rest of my forum, but since it doesn't extend all the way down to the bottom of my page, it looks a bit cut off after the menu items. Basically, I just want to change the sidebar height to 100%, but adding height: 100%; to custom.css didn't change a thing.

This is what I have at the moment:

#Panel { 

    height: 100%;
    padding-left: 25px;
    padding-right: 25px;
    padding-top: 10px;
    float: right; 
    background: #f2e8e5;
    border-left: 1px solid #e5dad7;

}

Any ideas? Thanks!

best idea is to provide a link to your site - and hope @vrjvlinder comes to the rescue.
