CSS to make HTML page footer stay at bottom of the page with a minimum height, but not overlap the page
(37 answers)
Closed 8 years ago.
Can anyone help me why the footer is not going to bottom of page?
http://dev.unwaveringmedia.com/billy/
You can see the space after black footer. I don't need that and want the footer be exactly positioned on the bottom of page?
You have many options to deal with this issue.
Option 1
.footer-container{
position:absolute;
bottom:0;
}
Option 2
Use a sticky footer
Option 3
html, body {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
height: 100%;
}
#wrapper {
min-height: 100%;
position:relative;
}
#content {
padding-bottom: 75px; /* This value is the height of your footer */
}
.footer-container {
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
bottom: 0;
height: 75px; /* This value is the height of your footer */
}
You just need some content before the footer (or try one of the other options listed above).
I did this and it fixed it:
Right before the <div class="footer-container">
Enter this html: <div style="min-height:500px;">test</div>
That makes it work normally. So that should show you the problem you have. Either give it a minimum height, or just add your content in there (some lorem ipsem, etc.) or find another way to fix it.
try this
.footer-container {
bottom: 0;
margin: 0 auto;
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
}
You should give .footer-container to bottom:0; and position:absolute to fix footer at bottom.
.footer-container {
bottom: 0;
position: absolute;
}

Why is my element not sticking to the left when using position sticky in css?
(2 answers)
Why isn't position:sticky with left:0 working inside a scrollable container?
(1 answer)
Closed 3 years ago.
I'm trying to make an interface where two parts overlap, and one can scroll through the first part horizontally and the second part vertically. I quickly discovered the css sticky position.
Here is code demonstrating the issue I encountered using position: sticky; :
body {
margin: 0;
}
#d1 {
background: red;
position: sticky;
top: 0;
width: 2000px;
height: 50px;
opacity: 0.8;
}
#d2 {
background: blue;
position: sticky;
left: 0;
width: 50px;
height: 2000px;
opacity: 0.8;
}
<div id="d1"></div>
<div id="d2"></div>
(doesn't work in my browser, here is a jsfiddle https://jsfiddle.net/2bovgy84/1/ )
If you scroll down red div stays on top (what I expect), but if you scroll right blue div gets "stuck" half-way through (but I expect it to behave like the red one does)
I do not understand this behavior, at all.
body needs to be allowed to grow wider than HTML/window's width so it doesn't drag the blue element along with it (backgrounds on html/body shows what happens : https://jsfiddle.net/Lq473pue/1/ ).
you can use for that:
display:inline-block;
display:table;
float:left;
jsfiddle updated : https://jsfiddle.net/Lq473pue/
min-width:100%; can also be handy for body
The body needs the width or you need elements that are not sticky to create that width. Otherwise your body will be the width of the viewport.
https://jsfiddle.net/y9r74c0x/20/
body {
margin: 0;
width: 2000px;
}
#d1 {
background: red;
position: sticky;
bottom: 0;
width: 2000px;
height: 50px;
opacity: 0.8;
}
#d2 {
background: blue;
position: sticky;
right: 0;
width: 50px;
height: 2000px;
opacity: 0.8;
}
<div id="d1"></div>
<div id="d2"></div>

CSS to make HTML page footer stay at bottom of the page with a minimum height, but not overlap the page
(37 answers)
Closed 9 years ago.
What is best practice for setting up a web page so that if there is very little content/text to be displayed on that web page the footer is displayed at the bottom of the browser window and not half way up the web page?
What you’re looking for is the CSS Sticky Footer.
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
html,
body {
height: 100%;
}
#wrap {
min-height: 100%;
}
#main {
overflow: auto;
padding-bottom: 180px;
/* must be same height as the footer */
}
#footer {
position: relative;
margin-top: -180px;
/* negative value of footer height */
height: 180px;
clear: both;
background-color: red;
}
/* Opera Fix thanks to Maleika (Kohoutec) */
body:before {
content: "";
height: 100%;
float: left;
width: 0;
margin-top: -32767px;
/* thank you Erik J - negate effect of float*/
}
<div id="wrap">
<div id="main"></div>
</div>
<div id="footer"></div>
You could use position:fixed; to bottom.
eg:
#footer{
position:fixed;
bottom:0;
left:0;
}
HTML
<div id="footer"></div>
CSS
#footer {
position:absolute;
bottom:0;
width:100%;
height:100px;
background:blue;//optional
}
Perhaps the easiest is to use position: absolute to fix to the bottom, then a suitable margin/padding to make sure that the other text doesn't spill over the top of it.
css:
<style>
body {
margin: 0 0 20px;
}
.footer {
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
height: 20px;
background: #f0f0f0;
width: 100%;
}
</style>
Here is the html main content.
<div class="footer"> Here is the footer. </div>
set its position:fixed and bottom:0 so that it will always reside at bottom of your browser windows
use this style
min-height:250px;
height:auto;
I have the following html...
<div class="header"></div>
<div class="main"></div>
<div class="footer"></div>
And following css...
.header{
position: fixed;
background-color: #f00;
height: 100px;
}
.main{
background-color: #ff0;
height: 700px;
}
.footer{
position: fixed;
bottom: 0;
background-color: #f0f;
height: 120px;}
But why the header and footer is not fixed, anything I did wrong? I want only "main" to be scrollable and "header" and "footer" to be at a fixed position. How to do?
+-------------------------------------+
| header | -> at fixed position (top of window)
+-------------------------------------+
| main |
| |
| | -> scrollable as its contents
| | scroll bar is window scroll bar not of main
| |
| |
+-------------------------------------+
| footer | -> at fixed position (bottom of window)
+-------------------------------------+
See this fiddle
My issue was that a parent element had transform: scale(1); this apparently makes it impossible for any element to be fixed inside it. By removing that everything works normally...
It seems to be like this in all browsers I tested (Chrome, Safari) so don't know if it comes from some strange web standard.
(It's a popup that goes from scale(0) to scale(1))
if a parent container contains transform this could happen. try commenting them
-webkit-transform: translate3d(0,0,0);
transform: translate3d(0,0,0);
you need to give width explicitly to header and footer
width: 100%;
Working fiddle
If you want the middle section not to be hidden then give position: absolute;width: 100%; and set top and bottom properties (related to header and footer heights) to it and give parent element position: relative. (ofcourse, remove height: 700px;.) and to make it scrollable, give overflow: auto.
Double-check that you haven't enabled backface-visibility on any of the containing elements, as that will wreck position: fixed. For me, I was using a CSS3 animation library...
Working jsFiddle Demo
When you are working with fixed or absolute values,
it's good idea to set top or bottom and left or right (or combination of them) properties.
Also don't set the height of main element (let browser set the height of it with setting top and bottom properties).
.header{
position: fixed;
background-color: #f00;
height: 100px;
top: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
}
.main{
background-color: #ff0;
position: fixed;
bottom: 120px;
left: 0;
right: 0;
top: 100px;
overflow: auto;
}
.footer{
position: fixed;
bottom: 0;
background-color: #f0f;
height: 120px;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
}
I had a similar problem caused by the addition of a CSS value for perspective in the body CSS
body { perspective: 1200px; }
Killed
#mainNav { position: fixed; }
As others pointed out, certain CSS properties on a parent element will prevent position: fixed from working. In my case it was backdrop-filter.
This might be an old topic but in my case it was the layout value of css contain property of the parent element that was causing the issue. I am using a framework for hybrid mobile that use this contain property in most of their component.
For example:
.parentEl {
contain: size style layout;
}
.parentEl .childEl {
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
}
Just remove the layout value of contain property and the fixed content should work!
.parentEl {
contain: size style;
}
Another cause could be a parent container that contains the CSS animation property. That's what it was for me.
For anyone having this issue primarily with navbars, not sticking to the top, I found that if any element in the parent container of the positon: fixed; element has a width exceeding 100% - so creating horizontal scrollbars - is the issue.
To solve it set the 'parent element' to have overflow-x: hidden;
You forgot to add the width of the two divs.
.header {
position: fixed;
top:0;
background-color: #f00;
height: 100px; width: 100%;
}
.footer {
position: fixed;
bottom: 0;
background-color: #f0f;
height: 120px; width:100%;
}
demo
You didn't add any width or content to the elements. Also you should set padding top and bottom to your main element so the content is not hidden behind the header/footer. You can remove the height as well and let the browser decide based on the content.
http://jsfiddle.net/BrmGr/12/
.header{
position: fixed;
background-color: #f00;
height: 100px;
width:100%;
}
.main{
background-color: #ff0;
padding-top: 100px;
padding-bottom: 120px;
}
.footer{
position: fixed;
bottom: 0;
background-color: #f0f;
height: 120px;
width:100%;}
You have no width set and there is not content in the divs is one issue. The other is that the way html works... when all three of fixed, is that the hierarchy goes from bottom to top... so the content is on top of the header since they are both fixed... so in this case you need to declare a z-index on the header... but I wouldn't do that... leave that one relative so it can scroll normally.

I had the same issue, my parent was set to transform-style: preserve-3d; removing it did the trick for me.
We'll never convince people to leave IE6 if we keep striving to deliver quality websites to those users.
Only IE7+ understood "position: fixed".
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/position
So you're out of luck for IE6. To get the footer semi-sticky try this:
.main {
min-height: 100%;
margin-bottom: -60px;
}
.footer {
height: 60px;
}
You could also use an iFrame maybe.
This will keep the footer from 'lifting off' from the bottom of the page. If you have more than one page of content then it will push down out of site.
On a philosophical note, I'd rather point IE6 users to http://browsehappy.com/ and spend the time I save hacking for IE6 on something else.
You can use it in the same way because if the parent container has the transform effect, you could create a child where it occupies 100% of the parent container and add a position realtive and then the container that you want to add the position fixed and it works without problems.
might be an answer for some cases https://stackoverflow.com/a/75284271/7874122
TLDR position: fixed is attached to containing element, by which element is positioned. if containing block is different than viewport dimensions, fixed element will be placed according to containing block.

Center a position:fixed element
(23 answers)
Closed 9 years ago.
I have an CSS issue specific to Google Chrome. I've done some research but nobody knows how to fix it without Javascript, which I do not want to use because my element will change in the future.
The code is below, if you use it you will see the that the child div goes to the right hand side of the page and if I add the same top an position values to the parents it moves in the opposite direction.
The website will have a lot more content, and I want a centered header where the sidebar and the floated content will disappear behind as you scroll through the page.
<body>
<!--this should not need any css coding till later on after the site is complete-->
<center>
<div class="header_p1">
<img class="header_p1_child" src="header.png"/>
</div>
</center>
and the css is
.header_p1
{
background: white;
width: 750px;
height: 110px;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
.header_p1_child
{
float: none;
background: white;
width: 750px;
height: 110px;
position: fixed;
top: 0px;
}
You want a centered header fixed to the top of the page such that for longer pages, the content will scroll vertically beneath the header.
Here is the prototype HTML snippet:
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="header">
<img class="banner" src="http://placehold.it/200x100" />
</div>
<div class="content">
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor ...</p>
</div>
</div>
I created a div.wrapper block to define a context for the layout, which has some padding equal to the expected height of the header.
The div.header block contains an image (200x100 px), and div.content holds various text paragraphs.
The layout and styling is defined in the following CSS:
.wrapper {
outline: 2px dotted blue; /** optional **/
/** Top padding so that initially, the content is below the header **/
padding-top: 100px;
}
.header {
height: 100px;
width: 400px; /** Use 100% to fill the width of the page **/
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
margin: 0 auto;
background-color: rgba(0,0,255,0.2);
}
img.banner {
display: block;
margin: 0 auto;
}
The .header style declares a height and width, and uses position: fixed to pin the position of the element to the view port. For positioning, top: 0 places the header to the top of the page.
To center the element, set left: 0 and right: 0 and use margin: 0 auto.
Within div.header, you can declare the image to be a block type element and then center it by using margin: 0 auto.
I checked this both in Firefox and Chrome and it works as expected. This relies on CSS 2.1 so it should work in quite a few older browsers, perhaps IE7, but I did not test it, but perhaps someone can do so and comment accordingly.
Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/audetwebdesign/q2WRv/
Source: http://css-tricks.com/quick-css-trick-how-to-center-an-object-exactly-in-the-center/
DO NOT USE <center> tag, this is outdated and should be done with CSS
<body>
<div class="header_p1"><img src="header.png"/></div></center>
CSS
.header_p1
{
background: white;
width: 750px;
height: 110px;
padding-bottom: 10px;
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 50%; /* Start at 50% of browser window */
margin-left: -325px; /* Go half of width to the left, centering the element */
}
Orignally taken from here In order to get the image exactly centered, it's a simple matter of applying a negative top margin of half the images height, and a negative left margin of half the images width. For this example, like so:
.centered {
position: fixed;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
margin-top: -50px;
margin-left: -100px;
}
How do I push a footer to the bottom of my page? Here is an example of what I currently have: hansmoolman.com
As you can see the footer is pushed underneath my 2 left and right containers. How can I fix this. I have used relative positioning for some elements as the red banner had to be pushed over the header bar and given a + z-index. I found some solutions online to stick the footer to the bottom but this does not solve my problem as the footer still appears aver my 2 columns if the content in them is not big enough to fill the whole page.
So what I want is for the footer to always follow BELOW all the rest of the content (the sticking to the bottom I can solve later).
There is a bit of CSS code so havent added it here, but can add it if needed
Your CSS Looks Like:
#footer {
background-color: #FFFEF0;
border: 1px solid #000000;
clear: both;
height: auto;
margin-top: -100px; /* >> Remove This*/
overflow: hidden;
position: relative;
top: -200px; /* >> Remove This*/
width: 100%;
z-index: -1;
}
Remove following css rules from #footer
top: -200px;
margin-top: -100px;
Try clear:both for your footer container tag, considering it has display:block; set
To align the contents right. You have to make some changes in your css.
First of all remove :
top: -200px;
width: 100%;
z-index: -1;
From your #footer .
And change your #mainContentContainer to :
#mainContentContainer
{
min-height: 400px;
overflow: auto;
position: relative;
width: 100%;
}
