Please see the link below. There a few errors that I am working on but the one that I need help with right now is the border div in the center of the page is not going all the way down to the footer. Can somebody please let me know what the issue is? It is greatly appreciated.

I think you need to clean up the code before trying to solve specific problems. I think you're linking to 15 different css files and at least three of those aren't css, but actually more html.

There's just so much code in there it's going to be much easier to either clean it all out or start again than it will be to try to find one error and fix it.

I realize that's probably not what you want to hear, but I think trying to fix small errors is only going to lead to creating new ones. It really would be better to fix the larger problems before struggling with the smaller ones.

There is a lot of code because it is built on Drupal and then built on the Zen start theme so there is a lot of CSS files there for a reason. I just need help on the center borders div so that it stretches all the way to the footer. I'm sure it is a quick fix that i am missing. Thanks.

It's hard to say with that code. But it seems likely that a div is not closed properly or not closed in the right place.

EDIT:

I just noticed your welcome message that is supposed to be towards the top of your page is at the bottom of the code. Seems there are some things that are out of place and need corrected.

I realize the all that extra code is from other things, but the problem is that it's very difficult to go through all that code to try and find the problem. Any one of those css files could contain what needs to be changed and you may need to change a few of them to get things to work. Your html is also hard to read.

I spent about 15 minutes looking before posting above and it's just hard to know where to look to fix this.

I can tell you that as you add more content and the content area grows the shadow grows with it and if you fill up enough content to go past the calendar on the right the shadow does eventually meet the footer.

That suggests to me that some div isn't forcing the containing div open enough and the shadows are stopping where the containing div is stopping. The problem is I can't tell you which div or other html element that might be, because it's hard to wade through all the code.

But if you add more content the shadows do begin to reach toward the footer.

+1 on "clean up the code" : seems like you have an unclosed <p> on line 290 (or something related).
