footer movement (IE+FF problem)

[Anexxion]

i want the body_layout area to be 100% of the browser height and the footer to stay at the bottom but instead, I get this problem:

#footer {
background:#66CCFF none repeat scroll 0 0;
bottom:0;
height:60px;
left:0;
position:relative;
width:100%;
}
.footer_image {
bottom:0;
height:60px;
position:relative;
text-align:center;
width:433px;
margin:0 auto;
background:#66CCFF none repeat scroll 0 0;
width:100%;
float:left;
padding-top:11px;
}
.footer_copyright {
border:0 none;
color:#000000;
font-family:Tahoma;
font-size:10px;
text-align:center;
}



That works on my end... Not sure if it's "politically correct", but it works.

just realized that I left a big blue bar up top...

Here's the fixed CSS:


#footer {
background:transparent none no-repeat scroll 0 0;
bottom:0;
height:60px;
left:0;
position:relative;
width:100%;
}
.footer_image {
bottom:0;
height:auto;
position:relative;
text-align:center;
width:433px;
margin:0 auto;
background:#66CCFF none repeat scroll 0 0;
width:100%;
float:left;
padding:11px 0px 10px 0px;
}
.footer_copyright {
border:0 none;
color:#000000;
font-family:Tahoma;
font-size:10px;
text-align:center;
}


and the HTML you should replace:


<div id="right">
<p>RIGHT</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
</div>
<div class="footer_image">
</div>
</div>


Basically you're just removing the DIV called "footer" and using the "footer image" div instead as there's no need for two divs to accomplish what you're trying to do.

did that work for you?

[Anexxion]

not exactly what I meant but thanks, basically I want it like a reapeat-x image, whenever you minimize the browser -x wize, the images just gets smaller, same with this: here is an example:

see how no matter how large the browser is, it just adjusts?

[TheJoshMan]

I think I got it... maybe? LOL

Try adding this to the CSS in the link you posted above:



#footer {
background:#66CCFF none repeat scroll 0 0;
bottom:0;
height:60px;
left:0;
position:relative;
width:100%;
clear:both;
}


I tested that out with resizing the browser window and with enlarging the text and so on, it keeps the footer stuck at the very bottom.

Hope this finally helps...

okay listen, go to http://www.voigrafic.com/golfsite/

scroll down, see how the content stretches beyond the blue footer? how can I make the footer, stay with the content no matter the height OF the content.

EDIT: OHH nvm, thanks alot man!! you have REALLY helped me, if it wasn't for you I probably would not have gotten it, thanks alot man :D

[TheJoshMan]

Whew! You had me starting to think that I was losing my mind... LOL

I thought for sure I'd fixed it that time, then you started saying it wasn't working!!! LOL

Anyway, I'm glad it worked out for you. Good luck!
