CSS Footer That Stays at Bottom of Viewport

I have read through others' postings about this issue, and
I'm having trouble implementing CSS to force my footer to stay at
the bottom of the viewport, no matter the size of the viewport.
I have followed the tutorial at
http://solardreamstudios.com/learn/css/footerstick/
and it keeps the footer below the bottom edge of the viewport so
you have to scroll down to find it. I tried the tutorial on A List
Apart as well.
In my test page, the content above the footer is empty save
for a single line of sample text so that is not forcing the footer
below the bottom edge of the screen.
I'd like to know how to keep the footer visible and fixed to
the bottom of the viewport at all times so that its position
adjusts up or down with on the content divs above it and the height
of those divs.
Could any one recommend a good tutorial or let me know how to
tweak my code? The design is still at a really rough stage, by the
way.
My test page is:
http://www.kjmassoc.com/2007/floated%20columns.html
and my CSS for the footer is in
http://www.kjmassoc.com/2007/css/screen/layout.css.

To revert to Muse 2.3, remove any installed copies of Muse (using Remove Programs on Windows or the Uninstall Adobe Muse application from Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers on the Mac). Then install Muse 2.3 from:
http://labsdownload.adobe.com/pub/adobemuse/builds/muse_2-3_install_ma c.dmg
http://labsdownload.adobe.com/pub/adobemuse/builds/muse_2-3_install_wi n.exe
We're actively working to determine the cause of the issues and trying to fix them for our users.

Footer not staying at bottom in Firefox & Netscape

I have a webpage that looks fine in IE but in Netscape and
Firefox, the footer div is not staying down at the bottom of the
page like it is supposed to.
There is a "content" div which contains the 2 divs "nav" and
"actual content". "Nav" is floated to the left and is 155 pixels
wide. "Actual content" has a left margin of 155 pixels and is of
course to the right of "nav". In both Firefox and Netscape, what
seems to be happening is that the footer div is shifting to the
right just enough to clear the "nav" div and then moving up just
underneath the "actual content" div. This descripition is occurring
on my template page which has no actual content so that is why the
"nav" is taller than the empty "actual content". On a page that
does have words, etc in the "actual content" div, the footer does
stay beneath the "actual content" but if the "actual content" is
still shorter than the "nav", the footer is still shifting right
clear of the nav and jumping up just beneath the "actual content".
Currently "content" is positioned relatively. The 2 divs
inside of content, which are "nav" and "actual content" are not
specified as far as positioning (which I think defaults to
static???). The footer div which is not contained in the "content"
div also does not have positioning specified.
Can anyone help?

The URL I was asking for was a URL to a page exhibiting the
problem you
were having. If you continue to have problems, someone will
need to look
at what you are doing and how you're doing it in order to
offer any
substantive suggestions.
If your problem is related to clearing floats, you may this

Footer not staying at bottom of page

http://www.mrjindustrial.com.au/index_newicons.html
The footer is not sticking to the bottom of the page when viewed on a reasonable-sized monitor. There's a large space beneath it. I have not been able to work out exactly why this is happening, and hope someone here might know.
I have been using PVII CSS Layout Magic and have posted this question in their forums, no reply as yet, so I am hoping someone in this forum can help.
Thanks, Pixelwarrior

The height of a page is determined by how much content it contains. Short pages don't stretch to fill the available viewport without code hacks which can lead to other problems.
If you want a fixed footer (always visible), try this:

Can I create a footer that doesn't move with a scrolling layout?

I'm making a book that has horizontal and vertical layouts, and I'd love to make a footer that stays put while the content scrolls. Is that possible?
----S

Having taken almost an hour using my primitive Aussie download speed Broadband, to download the 1gig plus book...and expecting some supa dupa new gizmo..... Its a great example of using the power of iBA coupled together with a full understanding of how to use the built in options and facilities.
Apart from certain things which I personally don't like ( six mini sized videos on a white page ) it is a masterclass worth downloading by anybody wanting to have a reference work at hand. It is free and basically from what I see, its a brochure for a company.
The virtical scrolling pages are...... just that and available to anybody using iBA and a LS template and wanting vertical scrolling - which I think is pointless , but hey....
Basically, you create in LS and edit in Portrait.
A comment in the book was .. " I took my staff to a beer tasting....."
"My Staff", to me suggest the book is a studio product
Use the Orientation icons top menu to see your page in either modes.
I suggest you open a template and use it as a test book.... I keep one all the time and its now full or trials and tests! OR, duplicate your book and play with the copy, it saves heartache when it goes wrong!
Again my disclaimer.... most people do not like turning the iPad around and as books made with iBA are not usable on other devices, I see no point in having basically duplicate content seen in porttrait or LS.....after all, you do not keep grabbing your flatescreen TV and turning it vertical , or expecting a cinema screen to rotate...
Have some more fun......

Footer not staying at the bottom of the content

I am making a new website -- tomperkowitz.com -- and the footer sticks to the bottom of the browser page leaving a big white space when the browser window is taller than the content. I would like the footer to remain at the bottom of the content (like the first image below) and not stick to the bottom of the window (as shown in the second image below.
I have another site - horizonshades.com - made with Muse where the footer stays as I want to, but I don't know what I am doing different/wrong with this new site.
Any help would be appreciated.

Have you unchecked Sticky Footer in the Page Properties?

Keep footer div at the bottom of the page

ok, really simple im sure, il i want to do is keep a div at the bottom of the page.. not the browser window so it can always be seen, but at the bottom of all the content, what information would i apply to this div? ive tried top;100% minus the height of the div, no luck, any help would be great thanks.

Try something like this:
First define your html code like this:
<div id="container">
     <div id="content">
          <h1>Content</h1>
          <p>Please resize the browser window to see how your 100% CSS footer behaves. </p>
          <p>Some more text here</p>
     </div>
     <div id="footer">
          <h1>Footer</h1>
     </div>
</div>
Next create your CSS like this:
<style type="text/css">
          
          </style>
This is all there is to it in a nutshell. It can be modified to work in old browsers but that is another question.

Help with CSS footer

I am working on a site that is done with CSS. I have a couple
of pages posted but am having a problem with the footer. I have
made a wrapper at 100% hoping that the wrapper would always be at
100% of the screen in height. On one page the footer is at the
bottom, but on another page (index) the content is not all the way
to the bottom so the footer won't go all the way to the bottom. The
pages that I have up are located at:
http://www.mts.net/~vmendell/
This is the index and the second page is the Company
Information page. Also if anyone would like to critique the pages I
would gladly accept any and all criticism. One thing, the Flash
animation is just a place holder, the real animation is being
worked on at the moment.
Thank you all in advance for taking the time to look at my
pages and giving any help.
Thank You

At the first closing div above, your outerwrapper closes.
Then comes the Bear and finally an extraneous closing div .

Having a footer always display at bottom of page

I know I've seen this around somewhere but can't find it. Basically, given the wide variation in screen dimentions these days, is there a way to always have a footer display at the bottom of the page.

Item 21 at http://www.grainge.org/pages/snippets/snippets.htm#content shows how to do that for a top non scrolling region. Perhaps you can modify that.

SAPScript: Footer missing when using BOTTOM

HI Experts,
I have a simple form where in MAIN window I need a footer for signature information.
I am using /: BOTTOM..ENDBOTTOM after looping the items to display the signature information at the footer of the very last page.
However - when my items just fits into the first page - the footer (signature infor) is completely missing?
It will not push to the second page to display.
Example: 1 page (main window) is able to fit 50 rows (items) and suppose to display the footer info at the bottom.
When it is less or more then 50 items - the footer info will appear perfectly. But when it is just fits as 50 items - the footer just does not display. (this is due to my window height that fits only 50 Items MAX)
(I had tried using PROTECT..ENDPROTECT as well but it doesnt seems to work when I use with BOTTOM.
Kindly Advice.
Thank You.

Hi Lim,
Create window for the signature and in the driver program call this window..
at last.
      call function 'WRITE_FORM'
       exporting
       element                          = 'SIGN'
this will display the signature after all the line items

Is there a way to create a vertical menu for tablet that stays in place?

I am a novice in web design, and I want to make a vertical menu for a tablet page that stays in place.
It should not scroll, and it has to resize depending on screen size, so it looks the same across different tablet sizes.
Is this possible in Muse? After reading some posts I am getting the feeling this is not possible at all, is that really true?
If it can't be done in Muse, can I do it another way? In Dreamweaver for instance?
The reason I want this is that in my opinion horizontal menu's for tablets are ergonomically bad design, and just plain annoying. You always have to use two hands, lift one hand and then you probably block the view of the screen.
Vertical menu's for tablets just make more sense since they can be made so that you could place them on the side of the screen so it would be possible to navigate with the hand that is holding that side of the tablet.
I hope someone can help me.

Yes, I am using the widget.
It seems it is not possible to make the menu stick in tablet design (the pin options are greyed out). Nor is it possible to make the menu scale with screen sizes.
A possible solution would be the ability to make it stretch to 100% screen size, like you can with horizontal objects.
I have noticed though, that, for some reason, in web design it is discouraged or very hard to make things stretch 100% vertically. It seems to cause problems, and I don't understand why.
Since I have started in web design, I have seen many posts of people having design problems, where stretching 100% vertically would be the obvious solution.

How Do I create A css tag that sets my bg?

I created a css tag that defines my bg and how it is
displayed but I have no clue on how to apply it to my pg...or if I
have done this the right way. If someone could provide a tutorial
or instruction that would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

You can apply it to the body tag, or create a div tag with an
id (ie id="container") that surrounds the page and apply it to
that.
body {
background: #333333;
#container {
background: #333333;
Go to Window > Reference
In the Book dropdown choose CSS under style select any of the
background attributes to see details about how to use it.
Put your styles in a new stylesheet, embedded on the page, or
inline.
-To link a separate style sheet put this in the head:
<link href="pathtostyles/filename.css" rel="stylesheet"
type="text/css" />
-To embed it on the page place the css code in the head
surrounded by style tags:
<style type="text/css">
body {
background: #333333;
</style>
-To use inline styles, in the html tag use the style
attribute:
<body style="background: #333333;">

When my iBook got hot like that, I would take a break and let it cool down.
You can buy laptop desks that have USB powered fans on them, such as the Targus Chill Mat.
