Hi there I've been doing research on the site for some time now and i haven't been able to find an answer that correct my problem. I'm looking to expand my body div to fill 100% while maintaining my footer at the bottom of my page. As you'll see in my code the footer is a bit problematic since I'm using a "Banner" and below the contact info for the site. (See provided image).Anyway I've tried some solutions found on other questions but i haven't been able to apply the solution to my code correctly. If someone could point me in the right direction id deeply appreciate it. Also id like to maintain the code with html and css only if at all possible.
The page should not be scrollable on regular sized displays as i have very little content
to put on the website.Here i have provided a jsfiddle to further illustrate my problem. On it you'll see that what i want is my body(green) to dinamically change height to always fill the screen. taking into account that my footer(blue) should also be displayed on screen as well.

Could someone please take a look at my CSS Style Sheet and inform me where my mistake is? Anything I do to my img.otherimages selector, nothing happens and the image stays in the same position, on the bottom of the Webpage. Is there another selector I have that's dominating over this one?

According to this answer, putting display: block; float: none; position: relative; in a selector should ensure that the margin: 0px auto trick to horizontally center an element works. This is my code for attempting to center the body within the html element:
body {
background-color: lightgray;
float: left;
font-family: 'Lato', 'Roboto', 'Arial', 'Verdana', sans-serif;
margin: 0px auto;
/* Adding these last 3 doesn't seem to make a difference */
display: block;
float: none;
position: relative;
}
When I specify the pixels manually like 0px 500px, it works out fine. Does anyone know why auto doesn't seem to be working in this case?
edit: Guys, it doesn't work even when I specify the width for the body. https://jsfiddle.net/ozm2x9zx/
You have to mention width to make it center.
<style>
body {
margin: auto;
width:50%;
}
</style>
And also no need to mention px for 0(Zero) values.
You missed the 4th point in that answer your referred to:
The element must have a width that is not auto
Which was then explained in the notes:
Technically, margin: 0 auto does work with an auto width, but the auto width takes precedence over the auto margins, and the auto margins are zeroed out as a result, making it seem as though they "don't work".
So add a width to your body and you will see it working. Ah, but here is the catch: you are applying it to the body, not any element on the page. It works, but you will not see the effect unless you make the color of the html different from the body. Try this:
html {
background-color: red;
}
body {
background-color: lightgray;
float: left;
font-family: 'Lato', 'Roboto', 'Arial', 'Verdana', sans-serif;
margin: 0 auto;
display: block;
float: none;
position: relative;
width: 70%;
}
You need to remove float, off of your body element and your container sits in the middle perfectly.
Also, there is no need to attribute the unit type, (px), on a value of zero.
Consider:
body {
background-color: lightgray;
background-image: url('../images/brushed.png');
background-repeat: repeat;
font-family: 'Lato', 'Roboto', 'Arial', 'Verdana', sans-serif;
margin:0;
}
div#container {
background-color: #aaaaaa;
color: white;
width: 960px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
I just remove float:left; from body, and it is centered +
most of the time -> margin:0px auto; will work fine with display:table;

I'm trying to create a square centered page at min. 600px height. The page should expand together with the text. (Ofc.)
The page also have some picture based borders, which should follow the page. (Obviously.)
I've tried a million combinations by now, I think. The problem seems to be that the div-borders cannot auto adjust if the outer div doesn't have a fixed height. And the outer div cannot have a fixed height, due to expanding text.
It seems simple enough. And there're a lot of suggestions. (That doesn't work.) Have I done something fundamentally wrong?
Here's the page: http://bymosegaard-hillerod.dk/info.aspx
(Notice that the borders doesn't reach the bottom.)
For future reference. Here's the code:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

<div id="page">

<div style="float: right; margin-top: 30px;"><img src="/media/banner.jpg"></div>
<div id="menubar" style="margin-top: 210px;">

</div>
<div id="sideNavigation"></div>
<div id="bodyText" style="margin-top: 20px;">

Btw, the page is CMS driven, so I cannot just hack the one offending page. And I would really like to solve this in general.
Your CSS is over complicated, the HTML structure also, not to talk that the design is oldish and the font is hardly readable. And over all that you spiced it using inline styles... This will only lead to to fix a fix of a fix, and not to answer a client call to do just a simple edit / modification.
Hardly maintainable. Keep it simple.
Believe it or not this is all you need:

What i have looks splendid in firefox, but for some reason all of the text won't seem to stay contained within their respective div's in Chrome. Chrome seems to be assigning random height values to the ul and h1 elements, but for the life of me I can't seem to figure out why. EDIT: Okay, I am going crazy with rage. I mean it even works in explorer............ What is Chrome's (read "my") issue!?!?!?!?!?!
I deleted the screen shot, since i've made some changes. I've simply just uploaded it to the site musingsofamachiavellian.com you should be able to see the issue in all its glory there.
THANK YOU SO MUCH, the fix was as easy as adding html { height:100%;}

I did alot of tuning up. Take a look here http://codepen.io/anon/pen/Ezham
Noticeable I used %'s instead of pixels and added correct positioning.
I see two things:
1. The Cambria math font is causing problems.
2. You should add this css: html { height: 100% }
I believe this is because the div Foundation needs to match its css. Foundation and foundation. One is capitalized and one is not.
I have perfectly working code, that doesn't work how I want it to... But works.
I want to centerize instead of float
Here is the working code:
My .css:
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
body { background: #ededed url(../images/bg.gif) repeat-x; }
p {
color: #999;
padding: 0;

}
#container {
margin: auto;
width: 950px;
}
#header {
height: 302px;c
width: 950px;
float: left;
background: url(../images/header.gif) no-repeat;
}
#logo { margin-top: 60px; }
#logo h1 {
display: block;
float: left;
width: 503px;
height: 57px;
text-indent: -9999px;
}
#logo h1 a {

Then I try to make by div be center by going:
#content-center {
margin-left: auto ;
margin-right: auto ;
width: 322px;
margin-top: 20px;
}
But the it messes up divs above it.
add this:
#content_center {
margin-left: auto ;
margin-right: auto ;
width: 322px;
margin-top: 20px;
clear: both;
}
No floating elements allowed on either the left or the right side (due to clear: both).
You need to remove:
margin-top: 20px;
from the #content-center as that is pushing everything in that div down.
Edit: the answer above telling you to add
clear:both;
This also works, I guess I misinterpreted your question and why you need the margin-top in the first place. Still at a complete loss as to why you need the margin-top in the first place, its really bugging me if someone wouldn't mind explaining? :)
