 * Where we are having an issue in writing our CSS to have borders on elements.
   
   When our sidebar expands we want the border-right to continue. What we want is
   for the height of our border-right to continue when the sidebar is longer than
   the content box.
 * Here it looks right:

 * Here it isn’t continuing down to match the sidebar.

 * How to we configure our CSS so that
    the content box’s min-height is automatically
   equal to the sidebar’s height. Or is that a javaScript thing?

 * What about applying it as a border left of the sidebar instead?

 * There are places where our sidebar is longer than our content box and places 
   where our content box is longer than the sidebar.
 * Thanks for the fast response!
