CSS - Footer Overlapping Problem
Hi,
I've created a page with two tables, which is basically structured like <table> main content </table> <table id="footer"> footer content </table> and in my style sheet i have Code: #footerid { position: absolute; bottom: 0px; } The problem is that the footer is overlapping the content if the content is greater then a page's length. What I need is for the footer to come after the content table insetad of overlapping as it is now. Does this require some sort of id attached the first table? Thanks for any help on this one Similar TutorialsI'm using The Man in Blue's "footerStickAlt" code to ensure a footer sticks at the bottom of the page even with *short* content. No problem there til I resize my browser window. When the browser window shortened and I scroll down, the footer has jumped up and is concealing part of the menu. Yikes. Pages where the content is longer than the menu are fine, so I haven't uploaded them. It's only when content is shorter than the menu that this issue arises ~ which is the exact issue it's supposed to be tackling! Flaw/s in the code? I've already tried ripping out the horizontal min-widths and it seems there's no conflict there. From what I can make out, it's just a matter between the menu and the footer.... altho, when the browser is shortened in the way I've described the actual footer moves higher than it should be. Still, can't believe it's blueman at fault here. Must be something I've missed or tagged wrong. Or maybe it just doesn't work with this kind of menu? For reference, Blue Man's original code is he http://themaninblue.com/writing/perspective/2005/08/29/ Am just hoping the clever folk here will have some advice. I've burnt the whole day on this to no avail :| Could you take a look at www.tscweb.co.uk/contact.php? I do not want the bottom slogan DIV to overlap the form on the right. TIA, Terry Hi, Code: <a href="..." ><span class='openP'></span>Open this section</a> <style type="text/css"> span.openP{ background-image:url('images/plus.gif'); background-repeat:no-repeat; width:50px; background-position:left center;} </style> Why does "Open this section" text appears over the image 'images/plus.gif'? How do I make 'plus.gif' to be left or right to the text? Got a problem in ie6 with divs dropping and a slight over lap in ie7. The tables are set width inside a 600px wide div but no matter what i do the columns on the right keep dropping. anyone have any ideas? how can i post screenshots when no urls allowed? I am having a heck of a time dealing with IE7 and how it handles z-index tags on SELECT elements and DIV's. This problem only exists in IE7 and does not manifest in IE6, Firefox (Mac/Win) or Safari (Mac/Win). I've posted a concise example of my problem on one of my servers to better illustrate my problem: Sample Problem Page. Check it out using IE6 and then using IE7. Or if you don't have IE6, I've posted a screenshot of what it looks like. I would appreciate any help solving this problem for IE7. Feel free to copy the source code and play with it and even keep the combo-box drop down code for your own use (if you help me get it working of course, ha ha). Hello! I am using some pretty simple css to format a form for my website. I really like the way using Fieldset & Legend allows for quick and easy formatting of the form but I have one small problem. When I give the fieldset a background it goes above the border of the legend and doesn't look right. I've seen forms that have worked around this problem but I'm not sure how. Any suggestions or help would be appreciated!

Very annoying. Any help appreciated! hi Guys, Ive had a play and cant solve this problem. Ive got a gradient that is 200px tall that repeats across the top of my page set as the background. I also have a container with a width of 850px centered. I need to create another gradient that repeats across the bottom of the page (200px tall also). What ive done is taken the footer div out of the container and put it underneath in the html set the width to 100% height to 200px and repeated the background - this works but if there is no content in the container the footer sits half way up the page sooooo I add position: absolute with bottom: 0px which brings the footer to the bottom of the page even if no content is in the container SWEET but if I start streching the actual browser window up and down the footer will ride over any other element on page. The dreaded CSS footer. I've managed to get it working perfectly in IE, but Firefox isn't happy atm. If you resize the window so that it needs to be scrolled down the footer soon gets very messed up. If you figure that out then you really, really know your stuff. Or you're a lot more awake than I am. http://www.vaya.ws/vayadesign/ this is where it is about: sdomien .be/sdomien6-positionated/ the footer (now it is just the red ugly thing) looks like i want it in IE7, but when i open it in IE8 or FF it seems to be not like in IE7 what did i do wrong? #footer{background-color:red; width:100%; position:relative; bottom:auto;margin-bottom:0 auto;} I have an odd problem with my footer layout. I use 1280x1024 resultion and it works fine but when I change to a lower resultion or reduce browser window from full screen or put on longer text so you need to scroll the page down my footer doesn't sit on the bottom of the page. Check the attached screenshots and the css code bellow to see my exact problem. Code: #footer { position: absolute; margin-left: -50%; left: 50%; bottom: 0px; !important; text-align: center; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9px; padding: 5px; padding-bottom: 8px; background-image: url(../images/design/bg.gif); } Any idea? Thanks Hiya everyone. Right am having major issues with my new site. The problem i am finding, is that my footer is not at the foot at the page when the content in the middle of the page is not big enough. When i add a doze of lines to the main layer it's OK. please check these : Works ok with content in the middle Click here without much content - footer rises. Click Here I've spend 3 hours try to sort out this annoying problem out. Basically i want the footer to main a defined size, remaining at the very bottom of the page. Would someone be kind enough to assist me please ? I am trying to create a footer and facing a problem while doing so... This is my html code: Code: <div id="container"> <div id="main"> <div id="terms"> // content </div> // closing terms </div> // closing main <div id="footer"> // content </div> </div> // closing container And css is Code: html, body { height:100%; margin:0; background: #F0FAFF; } #container { min-height:100%; position:relative; } #main { height:100%; font-size:150%; clear:both; overflow:auto; padding-bottom:80px; } #footer { position:absolute; background-color:#FF6633; bottom:0; width:100%; height:80px; } #termsandpolicy { position:absolute; left:3%; width:72%; top:90px; } And result that I get is http://www.walknshine.com/termsofuse.php What is the problem...I have searched in google a lot but not able to get any significant css code...plzz help.... 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. Hi. I've been banging my head against the wall for ages with this! Could someone please explain, and perhaps offer some code, on why the footer on the Home and About Me pages (http://www.freewebs.com/mike-elley/) renders the page header and title below, differently. These pages seem to work fine in IE6. I'm testing on Opera 7.23 by the way. Thanks very much for any help! Hello, I have a problem with a footer on a website I'm building.

I have a header, some left content (which is comprised of layers that hold an image and some over the top to form a kind of navigation tablet), some content to the right of that for text, and finally a footer. Bog standard design... The problem I have is that the content to the right of the left content is sat below both the left content and the footer currently. What it should be doing is sitting to the right of the left content and where the text 'grows' push the footer down the page: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta name="generator" content="HTML Tidy for Linux (vers 1 September 2005), see www.w3.org" /> <title>Title</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <style type="text/css"> /* mac hide \*/ html, body {height:100%} /* end hide*/ body { padding:0; margin:0; color: #000000; } #wrapper { position: relative; min-height: 100%; height: auto !important; height: 100%; } #header{ position:absolute; top:0; left:0; width:100%; height:224px; border-top:0px solid #feffff; border-bottom:0px solid #feffff; overflow:hidden; color: #000000; } #content { background-color: #ccc; padding-bottom: 50px; } * html #footer {/*only ie gets this style*/ \height:40px;/* for ie5 */ he\ight:38px;/* for ie6 */ } #navlist li { list-style: none; margin: 0; padding: 0.25em; border-top: 0px white; } #navlist li a { color: #4E261B; text-decoration: none; font-family: palatino linotype, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: .90em; line-height: 200%; } a{ font-family: Tempus Sans ITC; color: #4E261B; font-weight: bold; font-size: 14pt; } #content { background-color: white; padding-bottom: 50px; padding-left: 200px; padding-top: 0px; } #footer { background-color: #ff0; width: 100%; height: 50px; line-height: 50px; position: absolute; bottom: 0 !important; bottom: -1px; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="wrapper"> <div id="header"> <img border="0" src="images/Banner_flat.jpg" alt="Banner" width="100%" height="224" align="left" /> </div> <div style="position: absolute; width: 169px; height: 243px; z-index: 1; left: 4px; top: 229px" id="layer1"> <img border="0" src="images/bridetablet1.bmp" alt="Menu" width="190" height="302" /></div> </div> <div style="position: absolute; width: 169px; height: 243px; z-index: 2; left: 14px; top: 257px" id="layer2"> <div id="navcontainer"></div> <ul id="navlist"> <li><a href="hello" class="c2">Home</a></li> <li><a href="About%20Us" class="c2">About Us</a></li> <li><a href="User%20Register" class="c2">User Register</a></li> <li><a href="User%20Log-In" class="c2">User Log-In</a></li> <li><a href="Supplier%20Log-In" class="c2">Supplier Log-In</a></li> <li><a href="Join" class="c2">Join</a></li> </ul> </div> <div id="content"> <p>Stuff.</p> <p>Blah, blah blah</p> <p>Blah, blah blah</p> <p>Blah, blah blah</p> <p>Blah, blah blah</p> <p>Blah, blah blah</p> <p>Blah, blah blah</p> <p>Blah, blah blah</p> <p>Blah, blah blah</p> <p>Blah, blah blah</p> <p>Blah, blah blah</p> <p>Blah, blah blah</p> <p>Blah, blah blah</p><p>Blah, blah blah</p> <p>Blah, blah blah</p> <p>Blah, blah blah</p> <p>Blah, blah blah</p> <p>Blah, blah blah</p> <p>Blah, blah blah</p> <p>Blah, blah blah</p> <p>Blah, blah blah</p> </div> <div id="footer"> <p>Footer</p> </div> </div> </body> </html> Thanks, G Hello. I have no idea how to fix my problem, and I am hoping someone would be kind enough to help me. I have set up my template to have a wrapper div with a top, middle, and bottom div inside. What I need to do is have the footer (bottom div called (wrapper_bottom) move down when the content in the middle div (wrapper_middle) has more content added. Currently, when content is added to the middle div (wrapper_middle), it pushes the bottom div content out of the way. Maybe I have the divs set up wrong or maybe have them listed in the html file incorrectly? I have uploaded a zip file of my files he www (*) dpegues (*) com (slash) site_help (*) zip Also, I have posted a live version of it at: www (*) dpegues (*) com (slash) site_help It contains my site images, the template in the folder called Templates, and the css file. And one more thing if everyone doesn't mind - how do I keep the bottom buttons attached to the bottom of the footer bar? I am learning CSS right now, and unfortunately have to teach myself. I think I have learned a lot though in the few days I have been doing it!!! Thank you everyone. |
