Hi Everybody,
I got a couple of templates from some site and altered them a little bit to suit the site I'm doing. I changed things like colors. fonts and sizes, what I consider minor changes so I didn't know there would be an issue. I'm not particularly good with CSS yet, but I got everything to look perfect in IE. And then later found that it looked like crap in Firefox. In the process of looking for the answer I understand that I should have done it the other way around (ok, next time). At this point I solved all but 1 issue and no matter what I do I can't get that last 1 right.
The issue is on the front page, the footer is up near the top of the page and it took 1 line of text with it. I forced that line of text back to where it belonged with margin:1750px 0 0 270px; but the footer won't budge. I've tried adding position:absolute;, clear:both;, top: 0px;, bottom: 0px; and height:100%; in various combinations to the footer css. It would move but not to where it belonged, sometimes it even moved higher up on the page.
Here is a link to a screen shot http://www.computerladyweb.com/footer_issue.jpg. Please contact me if you need to see the CSS and HTML and/or a link to the site. I tried to post the CSS and HTML for the issue but this site kept telling me the text was too long even for the CSS alone so rather than having a 3 or 4 part post I thought I'd just do it this way. Could someone please, please help me, I'm lost. Thank you in advance.
