You could set your image as a background to your <body> and then position it, and repeat it down the x(?) axis.
or maybe a min-height for your side bar div. i dont think a div will stretch to 100% or inherit the height of its parent. or it might in IE, but not FF.

Add and position the background image on your #container div.

If you give #container a BG image matching the sidebar you'll be fine. I just tested it out, worked a charm. Granted I used the TF logo, but still  .

i did this and it still isnt working... and i dont understand why!
Code:
#container {
margin: 0px auto;
text-align: left;
padding: 0px;
width: 780px;
background-image: url(images/sidebar_mid.gif);
background-position: left;
background-repeat: repeat-y;
}
