Doesn't produce the effect I requested in my original post, but it removes the problem of the main body text overflowing under the footer.

Also, it is not cross-browser, but most of the browsers which don't support it also have bugs or poor css support which result in the footer being pushed to the bottom of the content, not the window. What I don't understand is why, when the content extends beyond the spacer height, the footer is pushed lower, instead of the content overflowing over the footer.

Can you explain? I see that the spacer is the matchstick propping open the eye. I meant, "Why? Why does contentwrap not overflow into the footer, but instead pushes the footer down. Sorry that I didn't get it when you explained the first time. Regards Suzy [added] actually this is getting a bit confusing my fault.. I've just read all this again and it reads like I'm now suggesting the "spacer" go inside the contentwrapper div The footer takes its position by apppearing relative to and clearing the floated divs which precede it..

I apologise for the length of the code that follows, but I've colored, commented and renamed the divs and added in extras to see if the "quirks" mentioned earlier can be avoided..

Hi Can anyone help with positioning a footer at the bottom of the browser window if there is not enough content to fill the page, but at the bottom of the content if the content fills the page and makes it scroll?

Hi, This is my first time here, I came looking for the answer to positioning footers. I thought I'd found it in the above link but unfortunately this doesn't work in pages that use a valid doctype, even HTML4 transitional. Can it be done? I've been studying css for a while and haven't found a solution. I've just finished eric meyer's book on css [ericmeyeroncss. If eric can't do it then I suppose it can't be done?

If this is a limitation of css then can someone confirm that for me? This issue is the only thing that's stopping me from ditching tables in my designs. Full Member joined:Nov 8, posts votes: 0. What I usually do is place the footer inside the main div box content or whatever below which you want it to display and use position:relative for positioning.

Thanks all. I was surprised to see you using percentage values for the height attributes. So now I'm resigned to the fact that there are major limitations to pure css layout and in future I'll say if Eric Or SuziUK can't do it then it can't be done!
