CSS - Any Css Guru Out There? Need Some Help With Borked Footer!
Ok, I'm at my wits end with this.
For the past couple of days, I have been working very hard on my online portfolio site. I got it mostly done until I went to validate the CSS and the HTML in the W3C validator, and it screwed some stuff up (when I copied the new validated CSS), or I messed something up accidently, and now i've been trying to figure out for what reason the footer background color is missing (it's all white), and won't show up no matter what I do. I have two css files and a link to my portfolio that I can share, but as i'm a new user, that is disallowed, so. I guess I can show them in PM or something? The top seems to be fine, it's just the footer that's messed up. The footer is supposed to be the same color as the header, and no matter what I do, it won't show up and I don't know what part of the CSS I need to change. The entire layout is made up of css. Usually i'm pretty good with CSS - but I can't seem to figure out what I broke. I've been ytrying to figure it out since last night. If anyone can help me, i'd -very- greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

Lets say I have 10 books on CSS, which explain how to code in CSS, and I went through all of the books of the CSS do you think by the time I finish reading all of the CSS books that you have a great knowledge of it? To some people this may seem a stupid question, but the idea for me is to keep repeating what you learn from one book and another book they have a different approach to it and the third and etc until you brain starts to understand how the CSS works. Thanks in advanced and happy new year ! I really want to know how to replicate this effect for my blog *** URL Removed *** any ideas? specifically the jagged edges on each photo along with the drop shadow and how the hell is every photo at a random angle?? your help is much appreciated. problem solved Hello, Have decided to use a frames emulation technique that I unearthed on the web (refer to the code for sources), have tested it on IE5 IE6 and FF but not mac. It's at http://uk.theliving.net Would like some opinions on the code. Anything that looks like a no no. For simplicty I have left all the css code in the document. But even when the lower css sections are removed the technique calls for a fairly large chunk to stay at the top. Anyone know of a better solution that conditionally directs the browser on a per browser basis?Of course to do this you would have to get the order right and all the statements in a perfect flow (Of course the noscript part would need to stay). Anyhow any feedback on any of the code or slimming it down would be much appreciated. Gregory I'm having trouble with my website structure... view this page for an example... css is here... The Footer (which currently consists just of the validation images) is suppossed to be at the bottom of the page... It works in IE except there is a little line between the images (it is also part of the link...), and it doesn't work at all in FF... how do I get rid of the line in IE, and what do I need to add or change in my css to get it to be viewed properly in FF? Thanks Bryan Hello. Maybe this would be a better post on CSS. Here is my code. Right now I'm trying to add a set of links at the bottom of the web page. Any thoughts? This has been driving me nuts!

this one has to be done all in css I think. And I've got everything working except for the footer. The footer needs to display below the background image which is aligned center top. So if there is plenty of text, the footer should display below all of the text, and if there isn't much text then it should display under the background image. This is how its currently set up: container div header div wrapper div wrapper div left div middle div right div footer div wrapper div the footer has position: absolute; bottom: 0; the container with position: relative puts the footer up the top over the top of the header. With position: absolute it does something else weird, and with neither it puts the footer at the bottom of the screen over the top of the content. the wrapper has relative position, which seems to be why the left, middle and right divs are positioning correctly with their positions as absolute. I think the header just positions correctly since its up top. So it would seem I'd need the footer to be inside another div that is position relatively. I just tried that, but it also positions the footer at the bottom of the screen with more content under it.. I guess what I want really is to have the site split into three horizontal divs, header, main and footer. Then within each of those to center all of the content to only 975px wide. And really its only the main div that needs the background image at all. Can anyone help? I've read through a few CSS documents and I can't find any references to this, so excuse me if I've missed something (which I hope I have!). I want to be able to place a footer on my pages and always have it stuck to the bottom of the browser window, regardless of the amount of content in the page. So even if the page were nothing but the header and footer, the footer would be right at the bottom of the page. Can I do this in CSS? I want my footer to have no whitespace under it (like 1px ). I have it set like this: #footer { border-top:1px solid; text-align:right; margin:0px; font-size:smaller; padding-bottom:0px; } and it doesn't work so I'm guessing it is somewhere else in the file but I've tried messing around with most (all?) of the padding / margins and it still doesn't work. How could I do this? What I want is like the footer at http://www.oswd.org . Hey All, I'm stumped on a problem I'm having with css. Here's the website I'm working on: johnraymondonline.com/mjbfoundation/ It's wordpress and I was working to modify a template. The problem I'm having is with the div for the footer. I've made the width 100% and it's not expanding the full width of the page. I've checked to see if it was encased in a div and it appears as if it isn't. I'm not sure what to do at this point...use absolute positioning? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!!! Hi all, I'm having troubles with my footer and I hope someone will be able to help: test.katiefleming .ca (remove space) User: wendy Pass: letmein The footer is supposed to span across the bottom forever should the user increase the browser window (this works). However, my text moves as the window is expanded/contracted. I want it to be fixed. No idea how to do this. Any help would be great! Hi, Im trying to make my footer on my page be a certain height of around 150px. BUT I want it to fill to the bottom of the page even when there is less content or the window is made larger or smaller. So basically a sticky footer which fills to the bottom of the page. An example would be the footer he yoast.com My current CSS is he #fwrap { background-color:#BAAE9F; border-top: 1px solid white; border-top-width: 1px; border-top-style: solid; border-top-color: white; width:100%; height:100%; height:145px; } Any help would be appreciated! Thanks Hello All, My question regards footers using CSS. How would you have a footer like they do on Linkworth(dot)com so that it fluctuates depending on how long the page is? So if you have a really long scrolling page, the footer is at the bottom and likewise if the page is really short, the footer is also at the bottom, but so there is never any white space below it. I have a similar design I am working on, but when there is too much type, it runs behind the footer image and the footer never moves down accordingly. Thank you for your help - appreciated. Here is my page: http://dev.donmyersministries.com/ The CSS in on the page itself still. My problem: I want my footer to go at the bottom after the two columns, but I just can't figure it out. I have read several tutorials on keeping the footer at the bottom, but nothing has worked for me. This is my first (good) CSS only layout. Help! Thank you all. later Code: http://xbox-free.co.uk/ Can anyone advise as to why my footer is overlapping/floating to the right? Cheers, Neil Hi Everyone, I've been trying for weeks now to get my footer to sit at the bottom of my screen. I've read all of the how-to articles regarding footers and tried what seems like everything! After some investigation with Firebug I've determined that my problem seems to be some of my "wrapper" divs. My container and pagewrapper divs should be encompassing everything on the screen but they are not. If you wouldn't mind taking a look for me, I would REALLY appreciate it. Right now I have the grey footer just chillin' in the middle of the page as you can see. www.RoundtopRiders.com/v2/ THANK YOU!!! Jason I need to have a footer fill the rest of the brower window below all the content. The footer needs to be the same with as the content(ie 760). The content area needs to be transparent, because there is an tiled background gradient image used. So the fill can only be in the footer.. I might just be over worked/tired but i can't seem to get anything to work.... PLEASE HELP! |
