I need the content part to cover all the space between the header and footer to cover the #cotainers bg color.
my original problem which lead me to redo the above template was the output of my news (sample version) http://sonesay.trap17.com/gag/news_test.php. Once the page got too long the footer which is surpose to be fixed at the bottom moves. I ran the document at w3 validator and it checked out ok.
When you place ID on DIV tags, you have to define it in CSS every time. Or, you could have defined DIV to be full width and height all the time. But that's at designer's choice. To make every DIV to be in full height and width:
Yeah Jihaslip thats the desired effect but I dont like frames(or fame effect) . I prefer the vertical scroll bar to span all the way from top to bottom and have the page appear as one long page. But I think the problem occurs when the page gets too long and the footer comes off position as here http://sonesay.trap17.com/gag/news_test.php but its just cosmetic.
I've tried the sugestion by buffalohelp its still not doing what I want it to do. There is another template i may look at its at http://www.openwebdesign.org/design/3270/zenlike/ its similar to what i want but without the top and bottom being set at 0 hopefully this wont lost position when i put in the content.
Thanks for the link to that example on frame like layout. I would probably like to use something like that for future projects. As for now Il' keep trying to fix it or maybe try get it working on the zenlike template. But I really should keep working on finishing the site as much as Id like things to be exactly as I want it to be I know because of differrent browsers its almost impossible.
Hi all, this is a two part post, firstly how do i get my DIV to go the full length of my page
without specifying its height in pixels? My first thought is by using a percentage height but it
seems to have no effect on the DIV. I ask because of this page http://www.shadows.trap17.com/ww/
that i created. Now im using 128Ox8OO res at the moment and with my current use of BR tags i can
extend the div down to the bottom of the page, only in firefox its a few pixels too short and in IE
its a few too long so i get scrolling in IE and a grey gap in FF, not good for a website ...
Does anyone know how to make the height of a div in firefox equal to the percentage you input? For
example if I put blablabla the div container will only be as high as the text makes it, when in
internet explorer it does make it take up 100% of the page or whatever height in percentage I input
in it. by the way, html, body {} have 100% height in them, so does the container that has the div
element. Example: html,body {height:100%;} #container {height:100%;} #div {min-height:100%;} the
one called #div is the one I want with 100% height. Thanks for any help....
Okay say I was building a site (what do you know I am!) and I want to use CSS. the problem
being I don't know how to make a floated cell be the same height as another. FOr example CODE
<div id="main"> <div id="left"> just some </br> stuff
over </br> here! </div> <div id="right"> but...</br>
over here </br> I have </br> even more stuff</br> to </br>
display</br> </div> </div> now If I float the left to the left ...
