Keeping the footer at the bottom

Hey everybody,

At the moment I am trying to build a website with a footer at the
bottom of the viewport if the amount of text is too small and at the
bottom of the page if there is enough text.

I'm trying to do this with well formed html and css (as much as
possible). On the internet I found this: http://matthewjamestaylor.com/blog/b...ooter-demo.htm

The demo comes from this tutorial:
http://matthewjamestaylor.com/blog/k...om-of-the-page

It works properly in the demo but I can't get it to work properly in
FF with my own version. Somehow I can't get the footer to move up a
little in the case that there isn't enough text fill up to the bottom.
Which means I always get a scroll bar. In case you can't see what I
mean it might be since I have a widescreen monitor (although its not
much bigger that normal ones so you should have a problem seeing my
problem).

If you can't see the problem try going to this page:
http://web-develop.nl/favoriete-links (it has little content)

My own version can be found here:

Hopefully anyone can help me.

Cheers,

Hi folks, On my websites, I like to put a footer at the bottom of the page. I'm finding that under Netscape 7.02, the footer isn't where I thought it would be. Under Opera 7.11 and IE 6, it's fine. The problem can be seen at http://www.freebsddiary.org/tmp/pgvote.html and there is a screen shot at http://www.freebsddiary.org/tmp/pgvote.jpg I have "fixed" the problem by using a table, but that's not the objective:

Hi all, I would like to know how to get two rows of text links to appear at the bottom of a page. Generally I have been using <div> tags with the id attribute and CSS to place blocks of text, tables and images where I want them to be, but this has got me a little stuck. My HTML code is: <div id="footer" class="footer"> Home | About | Essays | Discussions | Member Area | Links & Resources | Contact<p>

Most suggestions on this topic recommend to use a page footer and make it visible only on the last page. My problem is that the footer is half of the height of a page which means the detail would show on only the top half of each page with whitepace at the bottom of each page. How can I get the detail to fill each page with my "half page height" report footer at the bottom of the last page? Any suggestions to solve this would be...

Hi to All, I am new to html authoring, so sorry if my terminology is not correct or exact. I would like to position a footer div to the bottom of the browser window. As I research in the web shows this could be done a containing element with "min-height: 100%;" and an absolute positioned element (div) inside, aligned to bottom ("position: absolute; bottom:0px")

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
