Equal column height scroll problem

[dwyerm91]

The equal columns script solved my problem with achieving equal height columns. Thank you very much for making this script available. Unfortunately, the script has a side effect of not allowing me to scroll to the very bottom of the page. When I scroll to the very bottom of the page, the scroll bar bounces back up about 1 or 2 lines. My bandaid approach to this problem is to add a set of paragraph tags below the footer. The inability to scroll to the bottom and the bounce back effect occurs in both IE 6 and 7. I've proven that the script is the culprit by taking it out and trying to scroll without the script being active.

If there is no more logical solution to this problem, I will just leave the extra paragraph tags below my footer. However, I hate bandaids and would like a more logical solution if someone can devise one.

Thank You!

Do you have a link to the site where the problem occurs?

instead of having the extra paragraph tags, you could apply a bottom css margin to the body and/or "container" div.

again that is a "bandaid" as you put it, however it doesn't apply extraneous html code to the page, and if you are using an external css file, it will save you some space on both bandwidth and storage.

Medyman,

See the problem at www.mtdwyerphoto.com/Services.htm. Let me know if you come up with anything else after looking at the page on my site.

Boogyman,

Good point about the CSS margin. I'll learn this stuff sooner or later.


Thanks,
Michael
