CSS - Css Footer
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 Similar TutorialsI'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 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!

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!!! 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? Code: http://xbox-free.co.uk/ Can anyone advise as to why my footer is overlapping/floating to the right? Cheers, Neil 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? 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 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 can someone please help me position the footer so that it is always at the bottom of the page. Any help at all would be appreciated. http://www40.brinkster.com/jessjav/en/biography_e.asp Ok, I have this page where the footer <div> isn't paying attention to where the menu <div>'s are. If you look -> Here, you will see how the site is meant to look, i.e. the footer is below everything else. But, if you look -> here, you will see that if the contents of the main <div> are shorter than the menu ones, the footer follows it up the page, and goes underneath the two menu divs. Both menu's are absolutely positioned, so I don't really know how to get the footer to notice they are there, and position itself accordingly... Any thoughts anyone? Cheers, Jon. 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 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 I'm totally stumped here.. Granted I'm still new to this, and learning as I go, but anyway http://www.psyberarts.com/work/prism/index.html There is a line in the content area that is being extended up from the footer color. I know it's from the footer color because when I change the footer background to white, it goes away. Should I just make a repeat image for the footer and do it that way? Hey. I have coded a css layout and I got everything like I want it, EXCEPT the footer. I can't make it to follow the rest of the design. For example, I want it to be below the main content area all the time, for instance when the main content area expands, the footer stays at the same place? How can I make it follow the main content area?

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 have two issues: 1. I have been trying to make a habit of validating my stuff and when I tried to validate my page, I get these errors: Quote: 1.
