careful, you're verging on trolling
but then, so was he
;o)
really, this whole business of "two columns matching each other's height" is
fundamentally flawed in concept
you're trying to achieve a visual effect using css on structures that
obviously don't extend any further than they, um, extend
in other words, unless *you* match the height of the column contents
yourself, how is it that you expect css to?
attempting to style something that isn't there is the problem
i.e. you can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig
or, sticking with the pig analogies, if you wrestle with a pig, both you and
the pig get dirty, and the pig loves it
