Alright, I have a body background, then I also have a div that is supposed to look like a table background. I'm having alot of problems with this background div, either it cuts off halfway through the page, or it interferes with my navigation some how. So -
1. How can I make a div be adjustable height to fill up the entire page and not cut off? (Like here : http://www.gptlist.com/CSSTEST2.html )
2. OR When I make it fixed so it doesn't cut off, my flash navigation menu suddenly dissapears.. For no reason whatsoever.
Please please help!

Unfortunately some browsers just give you the cold shoulder in the regards of jutting out the enclosed div through the bottom of the enclosing div. It's a grrr...and everyone runs into it now and then.
About the best you can do is, put a somewhat "tacky" fix after the inside div, which is to say, something that'll break things up and "force" the outside div to continue its work. What I use is, a somewhat invisible paragraph, a la:

The best way to ensure that everything holds together and expands together is to breakup your page into various areas. I suggest using div id's (#example) instead of classes (.example).
Create a div for the topper (#topper), the left column for navigation and ads (#left), your main content (#content) and I would add a footer (#footer) to make sure you demarcate the bottom of everything. Take all those div's and place them within one big wrapper div (#wrapper). The wrapper holds everything in place.
The #left and #content div's should be configured to float:left and float:right respectively. Then the #footer should be configured to clear:both. This forces the each column to stick to opposite sides of the wrapper and the footer will snuggle right beneath whichever turns out to be longest depending on what goes inside the left or content div's.
The basic (X)HTML will look a little like this:
