CSS - Sending Text To The Bottom

Greetings, I have a 3 column layout with a header, nav bar, content space and footer on the center column, making the center column have 4 rows. The content div's height is set to auto and it's overflow to auto so that when the browser is maximized on higher resolutions it will expand and contain the text without a scrollbar. alternatively it will give a scroll bar if the content div is shrunk below 300px. however the auto height on the content div is causing it to take up more room than necessary. if the window is shrunken down, the content text will leak out over the footer bar and beyond. Before i post code does anyone have any suggestions on what i should be looking for? If code is wanted lemme know.

I seem to have messed up while slicing...If my font size is too large, it'll mess up my table positioning...I'd like to know if there's any way to align text to the bottom of a table collumn?

Is there anything I can put in my style sheet to do this? Am I not being clear enough?

Please help.

EDIT : I've got a picture uploaded.


See how on the left there's that white space? And under "Welcome" there's also a lot of space? I figure if I could align the text to the bottom, it'd fix both problems. =/

so I have a side menu & main content inside a main container which has background so it looks like side menu & main content have diff. backgrounds and they all of same height..

Problem: I would like to add something to the BOTTOM of the side menu but am not able to do so.. this text has to appear at the bottom of the page even if content of side menu is less..

I could do "position:absolute" and give it top:870. but this is not dynamic as when the main content is larger it appears this text is in the MIDDLE rather than at the bottom?

Greetings!

I am trying to position a transparent gif at the bottom of a page, repeating on the x axis, so that text scrolls behind it.

I have the gif fixed at the bottom of the page, but the text is still over top of it. I think I will need to create an element, position it at the bottom of the page, use the transparent gif for the background, and give it a z-index higher than zero, right? If so, I can't get it it to work!

What I am currently doing: Code:

body{
  background:transparent url('/flames.gif') center bottom fixed repeat-x;
}

I'm trying to resize links on hover but doing so they change their vertical alignment during hover. Is there a way to prevent this ? Basically I just want the text to be bottom aligned and stay that way on hover. "text-align: top" works, but thats not what I want.

simple example:

CSS:
Code:

a:link, a:visited, a:active {
    font-size: 1em;
}
a:hover {
    font-size: 1.5em;
}

HTML:
Code:

<div>
    <a href="#">Text</a>
</div>

this is bugging the hell out of me, cant find a working answer anywhere (i've tried a bunch of things)

So I have 3 images for the top of my page and 3 images for the bottom.

The page is enclosed in a div frame titled "frame"

each of the 3 columns is enclosed in a frame "leftframe" "centerframe" and "rightframe"

Each of the 3 columns has a top which is a fixed size image at the top, a middle which is just empty space for content to go, and a bottom which is a fixed size image at the bottom.

Problem: I can't get any of the 3 column's bottoms to stick to the bottom of "frame"

I've tried some code in here to do it and it doesn't work..


any help here?

thanks!

Figured this was simple, but I can't seem to figure it out.

Using CSS, I want to put an image on the left with text to the right aligned to the bottom. I could easily do this with a table, but I'd like to find a CSS way.

With CSS like:

.imginfo {float:none;clear:both;margin-top:1em;}
.imginfo img {float:left;margin-right:1em;}

and code like:

Code:

<div class="imginfo">
  <img src="..." />
  Line of Text<br />
  Line of Text<br />
  Line of Text<br />
</div>

I get the image on the left and the text on the right, but, the text starts at the top of the image. I want it to end up aligned to the bottom of the image.

Attempting to use vertical-align: bottom doesn't do anything with the text.

The effect I am looking for is like below. If you assume the XXX are the image...

Code:

XXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXX Line of Text
XXXXXXXXXXXX Line of Text
XXXXXXXXXXXX Line of Text

I ask, how can I put last box at bottom?

Thanks for yor help!

I have a DIV with no border or padding that I cannot get to bottom itself in IE7 even with Code:

position: absolute; bottom: 0px;

is there a logical explanation for this? I tried Code:

fixed: bottom;

without success.

Using mysql and php I gather data belonging to different people and I put together one page for each person. The bottom of each page has a different footer: Quote:
<div id="footer">Data...</div>

The declaration of style is Quote:
<style type="text/css">
#footer {
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
height: 180px;
top: auto;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
}
</style>
The problem is that each page has the same information shown at the bottom. However if I check the source code it shows different data for each bottom of page.

Help!

i want to make it so a certain div is always at the bottom, but i cant do it by playing a min-height on the div above it, is there a solution to this problem?

I'm trying to position a DIV on the right bottom side of the page using the following code:

position:absolute;
right:0;
bottom:0;

Unfortunately when I scroll down the page, the div remains in it original place :-(

Current working file is he

link to the css file is he

The issue is that I have a background with an associated navigation bar that need to align bottom. I've got that part all figured out and working. However, the snag is that if the browser window is shrunken to a small vertical height, the bottom navigation bar (and associated background) keeps riding up and then gets mixed up with the other content. Conversely, if the page is extra long in content and so needs to scroll, then the bottom bar and background is aligned to the bottom of the window, rather than the page.

Obviously this has to do with absolute vs. relative positioning and is not working how I want it to work.

Right now I'm guessing that I need to switch to a relative postioning, but I'm hoping that maybe there are some other fixes that I don't know about. I've tried a few things, but am just kind of wasting time and need to get this figured out.

Thanks
