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

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:

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?

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.

Slide show picture size does not stay towards bottom of footer

In the design mode, on a home page, the slideshow box extends all the way to the top of the footer (how I want it too). However when I preview the same page, the slideshow box bottom slides up a bit and leave about a 50 pixel white space between the btoom of the picture slide show and the footer.
Any thoughts on how to prevent this?
thanks!

Footer not staying put

I am not an expert at CSS, and I am sure that I have made a mess of things. My footer is as big as a browser window, but not as big as the webpage. I hope that makes sense? If I have a small little window open and scroll to the right to see the entire webpage the footer does not cover the entire bottom. If I just make the window bigger without scrolling there is no problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

fixed it! I had to set the minimum width of the footer at least as wide as the body.

Firefox 11.0 Personas are not staying enabled after restart of FF11

After updating Firefox 10.0.2 to FF 11.0, both of my PC's personas that I have will not stay enabled after restarting FF 11.0. I have tried different personas on each PC and they also will not stay enabled after a restart of the browser. FYI, I am still using the same extensions that I had used in FF 10.0.2 and there all up to date in FF 11.0, it's just this persona issue that bug me big time.
I've tried all the Knowledge Base help suggestions, but none have worked.
Any one else having this issue? Any on have a fix that worked?
Help!

The installed personas and the currently selected persona is saved as a pref in the prefs.js file in the Firefox Profile Folder, so there may be a problem with that file.
See:

Toolbar items I add do not stay on bar after restarting Firefox 4.

Toolbar items I add do not stay on bar after opening firefox 4 again. I need to add them each time I start firefox, even basic ones like Print. Some stay put eg home but mostly they are wiped out on the main bar that contains the Awesome bar and search bar.
Am I missing a plugin or something?

This is caused by a corrupt file, for details on how to fix it see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Toolbar+keeps+resetting

I have firefox 4. I have xm radio on my computer. It is not staying on long enough. xm says I have to have google chrome 10.1 or higher. Which version of google chrome comes with firefox 4?

I installed firefox 4. Does it come with google chrome 10.1 or higher? I have xm radio on my desktop computer. The audio does not stay on long enough. If I have 10.1 or higher I thought that would help the audio as xm says that is what it requires and I don't know where to look to see if firefox 4 with google chrome comes with 10.1 or higher.

Google Chrome isn't part of Firefox, it is a completely different program.

My Firefox window will not stay highlighted.

It doesn't matter what website I am on. Every 5 seconds or so the color changes on the top blue bar. I can be in the middle of typing something (like this) and then it stops like it is inactive. I have to click on the page to start typing again.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Just noticed it a few days ago, not sure why?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Rather than use layers and as your site appears to be table

could try this tut........

I have updated to the new version of iPhoto but it will no longer let me edit text in the preset text boxes. The text is highlighted for a nanosecond but will not stay highlighted so I can amend it. Can anyone help me with this. Many thanks.

I have updated to the latest version of iPhoto. But now iPhoto will not let me amend the preset text in the text boxes.
the text is highlighted for a nano second but it will not stay highlighted so that I can add my own text.
can anyone help me with this issue.
Many thanks

You might try using the add-on 'NoSquint' which allows numerous zoom options specific to each page you visit & keeps your settings - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nosquint/
If you want to go back to 3.6x, you will find it here:
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
In most cases you can simply "upgrade" (meaning downgrade) directly from the installation. It would be a good idea to save your passwords & bookmarks just to be on the safe side.

Modeless window using "palette" does not stay up in CS5

I am having trouble running a modeless dialog with CS5 (on Windows 64-bit). My own script does not stay up and neither does the SnpCreateDialog.jsx snippet that comes with the ESTK and is supposed to demonstrate modeless dialogs. I have tried:
Running from the Scripts panel
Add #target photoshop
Being sure the drop-down menu says Photoshop, not CTSK
as suggested in an older discussion at http://forums.adobe.com/message/3008230#3008230. (I decided to make a new discussion as that one was marked answered.)
It also does not stay up when moved into the Photoshop Scripts folder and run from the File menu in Photoshop.
The relevant code in SnpCreateDialog.jsx is:
function SnpCreateDialog()
     this.windowRef = null;
Functional part of this snippet.
Create a window of type "palette" (a modeless dialog) and display it.
@return True if the snippet ran as expected, false otherwise.
@type Boolean
SnpCreateDialog.prototype.run = function()
     // Create a window of type palette.
     var win = new Window("palette", "SnpCreateDialog",[100,100,380,245]); // bounds = [left, top, right, bottom]
     this.windowRef = win;
     // Add a frame for the contents.
     win.btnPanel = win.add("panel", [25,15,255,130], "SnpCreateDialog");
     // Add the components, two buttons
     win.btnPanel.okBtn = win.btnPanel.add("button", [15,65,105,85], "OK");
     win.btnPanel.cancelBtn = win.btnPanel.add("button", [120, 65, 210, 85], "Cancel");
     // Register event listeners that define the button behavior
     win.btnPanel.okBtn.onClick = function() {
          $.writeln("OK pressed");
          win.close();
     win.btnPanel.cancelBtn.onClick = function() {
          $.writeln("Cancel pressed");
          win.close();
     // Display the window
     win.show();
     return true;
"main program": construct an anonymous instance and run it
as long as we are not unit-testing this snippet.
if(typeof(SnpCreateDialog_unitTest) == "undefined") {
    new SnpCreateDialog().run();
If I put a breakpoint on the "return true;" line, then I can see that the dialog has, in fact, been created and is visible, but it has returned from win.show() and will go away as soon as the script continues.
Any help would be appreciated.

The advantage of a modeless dialog is that you can continue to do things in Photoshop while the dialog is up. At least I presume so, since I haven't got one to work, including the ESTK example.
Sorry but no, most of the Photoshop UI is disabled while a script is running even if the script displays a palette window.
A dialog window does wait for show() to complete. That is what makes dialogs modal. A palette window does not wait for show() to complete. It runs the rest of the script.
In the example you posted all the script does after showing the window is return true then ends. Which is why all it does is flash the window. If you put a $.sleep(1000) line before the return true line the windows will display until sleep timeouts then the script will end and the window will close. That is why with Photoshop palette windows are really only useful for progress bars or other script status type windows.
Although palette windows may allow the user to intreact with the app UI while the window is displayed that doesn't work with Photoshop. The window only displays while the script is running and a running script limits Photoshop UI interaction.
I have tested palette windows in CS2, CS3, CS4, and CS5 with the same results. The window only shows while the script is running.
With Photoshop if you want the user to interact with the UI you have to create a panel.

Smart folder "Most visited" position in bookmarks toolbar is not consistent among 2 synched firefox installations

I have Firefox installed on 3 devices:
- desktop, windows XP
- desktop, linux ubuntu 12.04
- android mobile, ICS 4.0.4
Latest updated version of Firefox (Italian) on every device. Installations use Sync to synchronize bookmarks, passwords and history.
I have set browsers to show bookmarks toolbar.
The probelm:
"Most visted" smart folder, should be the first item on the very left side of this toolbar.
When I switch from one desktop to the other one, most visited folders does not stay in his position, but I find it on the very right side of the toolbar as last item. If I drag it on the left, when I switch to the other destop, after a while, it goes again on the right.
I close the browser before changing desktop.
I tried to delet the smart folder, ad reset it setting the proper key in about:config section.
This does not fix the issue.
How can I have the folder remain on the left side, and this being consistent among the various installations?

Hi Kossa,
You can also check if the issue occurs in
Clean Boot. If the issue disappears in the Clean Boot environment, you can continue to narrow down which entry is causing the issue.
Besides, uninstall it and re-download
a fresh copy of FireFox to check the result. If the issue still exists, create a new user account to see if it occurs.
If the issue persists, you can contact Mozilla Support directly and use Internet Explorer (IE) during the time.
