CSS - Autofill Footer
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!
Similar TutorialsOkay, so the google toolbar overwrites everything on the client display. External CSS, internal CSS, inline styles, doesn't matter. The only work-around I've found is using: Code: input .theEmail { background-color: #fff !important; } ... <input type="text" class="theEmail" /> However, if the user has set their CSS rules to display inputs' background in black and text in white, they won't be able to read their input on that form (white on white). So, I'll have to add Code: input .theEmail { background-color: #fff !important; color: #333 !important; } ... <input type="text" class="theEmail" /> Now, no matter what, the inputs that are classed as theEmail will be white with dark dark grey font. Is there a downside to this I'm not seeing? I know !important isn't meant for this usage, but I really don't want users to know they can use google's autofill and this is the only way I've found how. Is this the only method aside from javascript? 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 Code: http://xbox-free.co.uk/ Can anyone advise as to why my footer is overlapping/floating to the right? Cheers, Neil 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? So I have this site and I'm not great with css, but 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? 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 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 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 . 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!

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. I have a css file which looks good enough in internet explorer 6 but when i check it in firefox the footer box goes to the top of the page and the footer links go to the right column box. Where am I going wrong with this? Can anyone please point me in teh right direction please? Here is the css:- Code: body { background-color: #4A4237; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center; background-image:url(../../../My Pictures/page_background.gif); } * { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; } html {height:100%; margin-bottom:1px;} #wrapper { width: 700px; margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; background-repeat: repeat-y; text-align: left; background-color: #FFFFFF; } #nav { background-color: #775d42; padding-top: 10px; padding-bottom: 5px; padding-left: 15px; } #navlist li { display: inline; list-style-type: none; padding-right: 20px; text-transform: capitalize; } #navlist a { text-decoration: none; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #FFFFFF; font-size: 15px; font-weight: bolder; } #navlist a:hover { color: #AF9981; } #col1 { float: left; width: 500px; } #col2 { float: left; width: 200px; } #col1content p { margin-bottom: 10px; color: #666666; font-size: 12px; line-height: 140%; text-align: justify; } #col1content { padding: 0px 15px 15px; } .footer { BORDER-TOP: #a4d0ed 2px solid; FONT-SIZE: 10px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 20px; WIDTH: 700px; COLOR: #707070; PADDING-TOP: 10px; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #333333; TEXT-ALIGN: center; height: 60px; } .footer A:link { COLOR: #9ebd18; TEXT-DECORATION: none } .footer A:visited { COLOR: #9ebd18; TEXT-DECORATION: none } .footer A:hover { COLOR: #a5cfeb; TEXT-DECORATION: underline } .footer A:hover { COLOR: #a5cfeb; TEXT-DECORATION: underline } #col2content { padding: 15px; text-align: center; } .imageborder { padding: 5px; border: 1px solid #3A4A14; background-color: #F2F3F4; } .subhead { font-size: 11px; color: #78442C; margin-top: 5px; margin-bottom: 5px; } .sidebar { margin-bottom: 10px; color: #666666; font-size: 10px; line-height: 140%; } h1 { font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 36px; color: #DAD6CF; padding-top: 10px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 15px; } h2 { font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; color: #B4AA9E; padding-top: 10px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 15px; } h3 { font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; color: #B4AA9E; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-top: 5px; } #footer p { color: #EEEBE8; font-size: 9px; padding-top: 2px; padding-bottom: 3px; padding-left: 15px; } a:link { color:#0059b4; text-decoration: none; } a:visited { color:#0059b4; text-decoration: none; } a:hover { color:#0059b4; text-decoration: underline; } a:active { color:#0059b4;} If anyone can help me it would be very much appreciated as i am absolutely puzzled. I am not sure if i have put something wrong in the footer or if it is the wrapper. Thanks in advance Hi -- I am trying to set up a really basic css layout, and it just isn't working out for me. All I want is for the page to be split down the middle, and a footer than spans the full width of the page. Here's what I have: CSS: Code: body { color: #FFFFFF; background-color: #000; } #leftcontent{ float:left; width:50%; border:0px; padding:0px; color:#FFFFFF; background-color:#000; } #rightcontent{ margin-left:50%; margin-right:0px; width:100%; border:0px; padding:0px; color: #000; background-color:#FFFFFF; } #bottomcontent{ float: bottom; margin-bottom:0px; width:100%; border:none; padding: 10px; position:fixed; bottom:0; background-color:#FBBF0D; } HTML: Code: <html> <head> <title>Crap!</title> <link rel='stylesheet' href='css.css' type='text/css' /> </head> <body topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" rightmargin="0"> <div id="leftcontent"> <h1>A logo will go here</h1> </div> <div id="rightcontent"> <h1>A navigational bar will go here</h1> <br clear ="all" /> </div> <div id="bottomcontent"> <center> <h1>Another logo will go here</h1> </center> </div> It works in IE 5.2 for Mac, but not in Safari, so I know something is very wrong, but I can't figure out what. Please help! This page describes an effect I am trying to achieve, but doesn't work in either Safari or IE 5 on the Mac. The footer always appears at the bottom of the canvas and not at the bottom of the viewport as it is claimed to do in the first demo. How else can this type of footer be done so that it will work with these browsers (and have better browser compatibility in general?) Thanks! http://scott.sauyet.name/CSS/Demo/FooterDemo1.html 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 am having problems with the footer of our site on the homepage at http://www.themax.co/ . This problem is ONLY occurring in the AOL browser (yes, it's annoying). See the attached image... In the AOL browser, the footer links (HOME, ABOUT, etc.) are sitting ontop of the READ MORE buttons (in the 3 bottom boxed). I tried adding a <div style="clear:both"></div> between the footer and the boxes, but that didn't work. Then I tried a min-height hack - I added the <div class="prop"></div> and <div class="clear"></div> tags to each of the boxes. But that didn't work (the prop and clear class are defined in my stylesheet) ... but that didn't work either. Ug. Running out of ideas. Please help. I'm Having problems getting my footer to stay below the content of my page. here's the link to my page. http://www.netgamegurus.com/ main page html Code: <body> <div class="container"> <div class="header"> <?php include_once("pages/header.php"); ?> </div> <div class="main_body"> <?php include_once("pages/index_body.php"); ?> </div> </div> <div class="clearfooter"> </div> <div class="footer"> <?php include_once("pages/footer.php"); ?> </div> </body> </html> main page CSS Code: body { background-color: #FFFFFF; text-align:center; } body,html { margin: 0 0 0 0; padding: 0 0 0 0; height: 100%; width: 100%; } a:link { text-decoration: none; } a:visited { text-decoration: none; } a:hover { text-decoration: underline; } a:active { text-decoration: none; } .container { position:relative; padding:0px; margin:0px; margin-bottom: -150px; width:100%; height:100%; background-color:#666; } .header { } main_body { } .clearfooter { clear:both; height:150px; } .footer { position:relative; height:150px; margin: -150px auto 0 auto; } index_body html Code: <body> <div class="left_col"> <?php include_once("left_col_index.php"); ?> </div> <div class="right_col"> <?php include_once("right_col_index.php"); ?> </div> </body> </html> index_body CSS Code: .left_col { position:absolute; padding:0px; margin:0px; top:175px; left:0px; width:150px; height:100%; background-color:#00F; } .right_col { position:absolute; padding:0px; margin:0px; top:175px; left:150px; width:857px; height:105%; background-color:#0C3 } I've looked up a ton of info on this on google, but nothing seems to help. Anybody got an idea on this? Hello All, I am trying to put together what seems like it should be a simple css layout but it just is not cooperating. Thought maybe somebody could point out what I am doing wrong. The site is southernshades.net If you shrink the browser and scroll down the footer goes on top of the content area. I am going crazy trying to figure out how to get the footer to stay at the bottom. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated and save my sanity. Thanks. |
