I wanted to use a dropshadow on both sides of my main content but it's not reaching the bottom of the page. It cuts it off what looks like 100 or so px before the end. Haven't been able to figure out why. Would appreciate any help!

/* ~~ This is the layout information. ~~
1) Padding is only placed on the top and/or bottom of the div. The elements within this div have padding on their sides. This saves you from any "box model math". Keep in mind, if you add any side padding or border to the div itself, it will be added to the width you define to create the *total* width. You may also choose to remove the padding on the element in the div and place a second div within it with no width and the padding necessary for your design.
