Footer floating over main content - html

So I have a site that scales down gracefully in the browser window but I am having an issue with the content outside of my header. The main and footer elements are just hovering in the middle of all my content. I believe it may be something to do with the height I set to the header but I need to space out all the elements within that correctly.
Heres a link to the site: http://nathanlangley.co.uk/sitev5/index.html
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I just followed your link, and, following your suggestion, tried taking the height attribute off the header. It fixes it.

Adjusting DIV element's MARGIN-TOP value by the HEIGHT of other fixed-positioned DIV (that changes by the browser window WIDTH)

Hello all the web editing professionals! I have a bit an “alternative” problem:::
First off, here is my webpage that I need help adjusting elements’ heights and margins with::: www.rebelrock.fi. Please open that webpage in another browser window first!
So there are three DIV elements with the parameter position: fixed there; The MENU, the LOGO and the bottom FOOTER.
My problem is with the LOGO included DIV (at the top of the page, right under the MENU) and the main page content MARGIN-TOP positioning.
So as the browser windows size (actually the WIDTH) is changed smaller, at one point the REBELROCK .png-file LOGO IMAGE at the fixed-positioned DIV above will start automatically adjusting the width and height of that logo image. And when the logo is getting smaller (both by WIDTH and HEIGHT), then the HEIGHT of the DIV – inside of which the logo is – will be getting smaller too – and that’s exactly how I want it to be.
However, the non-fixed main content that is scrollable vertically, and especially the MARGIN-TOP value of that content will NOT be adjusted by the changing height of the FIXED logo DIV above, causing there unwanted space between the fixed logo DIV and the main content of the page.
So my question is; HOW CAN THE MARGIN-TOP VALUE OF THE MAIN CONTENT ELEMENT BE CHANGED IN RELATION TO THE CHANGING HEIGHT OF THAT LOGO DIV ABOVE IT?
As You can see, the pages are by far not finished in almost any way but I first want to have all the basic HTML/CSS to be perfect until starting to add more specific detailed content to the website. The site itself was initially a template of ADOBE DREAMWEAVER but that’s not important here 😊
I really hope someone here could help me.
Thank You in advance!
Yours, Tommi Tiihonen

Empty space at the end of the page in mozilla Firefox

I have a html page. There is a blank space at the end of the page after footer. You can see that space in Mozilla Firefox at screen sizes 768x1024, 800x1280, 980x1280.
I have tried out everything to get rid of it but failed. This space is not even identified in the inspect element. Any help will be appreciated.
By looking at the photo, I think this is the expected behavior and is caused by the fact that you do not have enough content to fill the whole page. To fix that, you would need to create a sticky footer and make the body and html 100% height;
Please see this article for the sticky footer: https://css-tricks.com/couple-takes-sticky-footer/

Whitespace added when resizing page -css

On my site http://math.byu.edu
I've been trying to make it responsive to screen size but I noticed a problem when I resize the broawser while on the page. If I shrink and enlarge the browser multiple times the min-height is dynamically getting set to a huge number and I end up with a lot of whitespace.
I've searched my php templates and my css and I can't find anythign that owuld be causing this min-height issue. Does anyone have any ideas?
As per the comments, just comment out the line positionFooter() from the $(window).resize() function.
The reason this theme has this script is to make sure the footer doesn't float into the middle of the page assuming the page has zero content. When the page has zero content, there's nothing to push the footer down. So that script is supposed to keep the footer at the bottom of the page, though it does it poorly.
For future reference, if you need a sticky footer (as it's called), I suggest using Ryan Faits Sticky Footer. Just wrap the content in a main wrapper, make sure the footer is a sibling of the main wrapper then use the supplied CSS to make it work.

Responsive content wrap when using position absolute footer

Working on a new design using bootstrap3 and trying to stretch the page so that even if there's not enough content to fill the page, the footer section would stay to the bottom.
The reason why I'm using position absolute, is because there's a link from the billing software that's being added within the content, I don't want to remove the link but position it a bit to the bottom in the footer section, in the center bottom, thus since I can't control where this will appear(do know where appears, just can't control), using position absolute on the specific element helps me here.
Now, that's not issue, just saying why I need to use position absolute and why I made the divs like this:
wrapper
>>wrapper_content
>>wrapper_footer
fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/raicabogdan/jsk1b7ua/4/
the footer section is properly set to the bottom, however for some reason, the wrapper_content does not go 100% height automatically on load or on window resize. Also if you resize to mobile view, content will go down few table rows.
The content goes under the footer section.
What am I doing wrong here? Left a fiddle of the html page along with some css that I felt were needed above.
Hope there's someone that could get me out of this.
Cheers.
Try this link. I have used this method to get the footer to stay at the bottom of the window.

Why does my sidebar move down to the bottom of the page rather than stay on the side?

I have a website with a blog and sidebar on the right hand side and it looks fine, however when I go onto page 2 of the blog, the sidebar moves down to the bottom of the page.
You can see what I mean by going to these links
http://www.beatinganger.com/blog (Sidebar looks normal)
http://www.beatinganger.com/blog?page=1 (Sidebar moves down to the bottom)
I have looked at the source code and I can see no changes in the difference between the 2 pages.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Your #left_container element on the sub-page is not being closed and therefore the #right_container element is being contained inside it.
The container div closing is causing a problem (as the other answers point out); also your div with the vertical_menu class is breaking out of its allotted size - which will probably cause float issues when your divs are closed:
Yeah, something is up with the template of the second URL, so that the sidebar is injected INSIDE the left 'main' column.
the #right_container http://www.beatinganger.com/blog?page=1 is in the different hierarchy than the enter link description here. #right_container and #left_container should be in the same parent and level as shown in the first link.
Another advise though, I notice that the content of the #right_container has slightly "wider" content than the container itself. Make sure the content elements are smaller or equal to the width of the parent container, or set #right_container -> overflow: hidden; a quick hackish way though.
