If got a very basic layout, with a header, content container and a footer.
What i need done, is to make my content container size up, so that the whole layout will fit on the screen. (unless the text in the content container extends this of course).
I've tried assigning a height 100% value to my body, and from there assigning my content containers height to 100% aswell, but that results in making my content container size up to the height of the full screen.
Before that i had the height on the content container set to auto, which of course resulted in the page not being long enough, if a visitor with a bigger screen size than the layout, viewed the page.
Here is a part of my code:
HTML:
<body>
<div class="background"></div>
<div class="page">
<div class="header">
</div>
<div class="content">
</div>
<div class="footer">
</div>
</div>
</body>
CSS:
html, body {
height:100%;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
.page {
position:relative;
height:100%;
z-index:1;
}
.content {
position:relative;
width:850px;
height: 100%;
margin: 0 auto;
background: url(images/content.png) 0 0 repeat-y;
}
I think this what you need (the footer will be always sticked to the bottom)
CSS
html, body {
margin:0;
padding:0;
height:100%;
}
.page {
min-height:100%;
position:relative;
}
.header {
background:#00ff0f;
padding:30px;
}
.content{
padding:10px;
padding-bottom:45px; /* Height+padding(top and botton) of the footer */
text-align:justify;
}
.footer {
position:absolute;
bottom:0;
width:100%;
height:15px; /* Height of the footer */
background:#00ff0f;
padding:10px 0; /*paddingtop+bottom 20*/
}
.content {
height:100%; // IE HACK
}
HTML
<div class="page">
<div class="header">Header</div>
<div class="content">
Some Content Here...
</div>
<div class="footer">Footer</div>
</div>
Tested in all major browsers.
DEMO.
What you really want is a sticky footer, no? You can style the other elements to give the illusion that the #content element is bigger than it really is.

I've got the following setup:
header,
content - which needs to be full height of the browser,
and footer
The current setup below is how I want it (when the browser is opened fully). Basically the content div should have 100% height and you simply scroll to view the footer. The amount you scroll is based on the height of the footer. The content will be a simple login form. I've added in a div with a fixed height to demo my issue (The login div could be any height). However the problem is when the browser is resized vertically. This is the tricky bit to explain:
My question is how do I prevent the footer from overlapping the content div? I'd like the footer to snap to the bottom of the content div. As the browser window gets shorter, i'd like the content div to still remain 100% in height. The browser will cut the content div as it gets vertically shorter (which is fine) but I'd like the footer underneath the content div and still want to only be able to scroll to the height of the footer.
I think i'm missing margin-bottom somewhere but not quite sure where. Could someone please help with this issue. Thanks in advance.
the html:
<body>
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="content">
<div class="loginPanel">
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="footer">
footer, hidden until scrolled
</div>
</body>
the css:
html, body {
height:100%;
padding:0;
margin:0;
}
.wrapper {
height:100%;
background:orange;
}
.content {
background:grey;
width:100%;
height:100%;
}
.footer {
background:purple;
height:200px;
width:100%;
color:#fff;
}
.loginPanel {
width:600px;
height:300px;
background:green;
margin:0 auto;
}
You should be able to achieve what you want with the following:
html, body {
height:100%;
padding:0;
margin:0;
position:relative;
}
.wrapper {
position:absolute;
top:0;
left:0;
right:0;
bottom:0;
}
.content {
background:grey;
width:100%;
min-height:100%;
}
.footer {
height:200px;
width:100%;
}
.loginPanel {
width:600px;
height:300px;
background:green;
margin:0 auto;
}
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="content">
<div class="loginPanel"></div>
</div>
<div class="footer">footer, hidden until scrolled</div>
</div>
You can try adding a margin-bottom to the <body> or <html> element; that should fix your issue.
<div class="page-wrap">
Content!
</div>
<footer class="site-footer">
I'm the Sticky Footer.
</footer>
CSS
* {
margin: 0;
}
html, body {
height: 100%;
}
.page-wrap {
min-height: 100%;
/* equal to footer height */
margin-bottom: -142px;
}
.page-wrap:after {
content: "";
display: block;
}
.site-footer, .page-wrap:after {
height: 142px;
}
.site-footer {
background: orange;
}
I have problem with the footer on my xhtml pages ... i want to put the footer always at the end of the page, at the bottom of it, so that when a page is poor in content the footer will stick to the bottom of the screen, but when a page is much longer it will stick at the end, after the last content of the page
How can i do it???
This is my CSS file
html {
height:98%;
margin: 0 auto 0 auto;
width:1280px;
padding:2px;
padding-bottom:0px;
}
body {
overflow:auto;
width:100%;
margin: 0 auto 0 auto;
height:100%;
}
#container {
min-height:100%;
height:100%;
margin:0 auto -50px;
}
#box {
min-height:100%;
}
#push {
height:50px;
clear:both;
}
#footer {
height:50px;
clear:both;
position:relative;
bottom:0px;
width:100%;
}
And this the structure of my page
<html>
<h:head></h:head>
<h:body>
<div id="conatiner">
<div id="box">
<header></header>
<div id="externalborder">
<div id="push"></div>
<div id="footer"></div>
</div>
</div>
</h:body>
</html>
U simply have to put bottom on 0px and set the position to fixed on the footer.
Example:
#footer {
position:fixed;
bottom:0px;
}
#container {
padding-bottom:3em;
}
When the document height is greater than the viewport, you can then switch the footer to static positioning. That gives you the ability to position the footer at the bottom of the viewport when content is short, and at the end of the page as normal when the content is long.
You will need to use javascript to detect when the content height is greater than the viewport and add the style that changes the footer to static positioning.
My HTML looks like the following, without the content though as the following is only needed to answer my question:
<html>
<body>
<div class="container">
<div class="socialmedia"></div>
<div class="navbar"></div>
<div class="mainbody></div>
<div class="footer"></div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
I've been trying to get my footer to remain at the bottom of my webpage, beneath .mainbody. The problem though, is that the footer seems to sit at the bottom of my window only, not at the bottom of the webpage which could extend well below my actual window when I have a lot of content. Right now, I have all the div's above set to position "absolute"; as well the html and body are styled in the following way:
html, body{
height:100%;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
html { background: url(/img/multiblock.png)repeat center center fixed; }
}
Now, the only way I can get my footer to remain at the bottom of the webpage is to set top:-3998px (or whatever the height of my largest window is). Obviously this won't work once a webpage has enough content on it to expand it past that height. If I set position to relative, it appears at the top of my whole webpage and when positioned absolute it appears at the bottom of the viewable window only. You can check out the website at http://www.edmuncovered.com to see what I mean or to check the rest of the code. Parts of my website include adding content every day or so so I want to make sure the webpage can increase in height with added content, but that the formatting stays the same and the footer obviously stays at the bottom. Any ideas?
I guess this is what you need...

You can try something like this:
CSS:
.socialmedia, .navbar, .mainbody, .footer
{
border: 1px solid grey;
margin-top: 5px;
width: 800px;
}
.socialmedia
{
height: 20px;
}
.mainbody
{
min-height: 980px;
}
.footer
{
height: 25px;
}
Html:
<div class="container">
<div class="socialmedia">Social Media</div>
<div class="navbar">Navbar</div>
<div class="mainbody">Mainbody</div>
<div class="footer">Footer</div>
</div>

I'm going to assume this is a questions similar to the one here: How to Stop Sticky Footer at Content DIV
At which there are a few good answers.
Links on that page:

http://twitter.github.io/bootstrap/examples/sticky-footer.html
Basically you're looking for a footer that attaches itself to the bottom of the viewport but also extends should the content push it off the viewport. Martin Bean and Ryan Fait have the best methods of this. The bootstrap's method is a variation of this method too.
Happy hunting.
Here is the jsFiddle link. Followings are your css and html code:
HTML code
<div class="container">
<div class="socialmedia">Social Media</div>
<div class="navbar">Navbar</div>
<div class="mainbody">Mainbody</br>Mainbody</br>Mainbody</br>Mainbody</div>
<div class="footer">Footer</div>
</div>
CSS
*{
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
body {
background-color:#E4E2E2;
color:#fff;
}
.container {
min-height:100%;
/*position:relative;*/
}
.socialmedia {
background-color:#186301;
padding:10px;
}
.navbar {
background:#A60206;
padding:10px;
min-height:30px;
}
.mainbody {
padding:20px;
background-color:#6D0594;
}
.footer {
position:absolute;
bottom:0;
padding:2%;
background-color:#000;
width:96%;
}
This is working for me:
http://ryanfait.com/resources/footer-stick-to-bottom-of-page/
In short, use this:
CSS
* {
margin: 0;
}
html, body {
height: 100%;
}
.wrapper {
min-height: 100%;
height: auto !important;
height: 100%;
margin: 0 auto -4em;
}
.footer, .push {
height: 4em;
}
HTML
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="layout.css" ... />
</head>
<body>
<div class="wrapper">
<p>Your website content here.</p>
<div class="push"></div>
</div>
<div class="footer">
<p>Copyright (c) 2008</p>
</div>
</body> </html>
I have a web page that is divided into header, page and footer.
The problem is that I made the page height :auto;.
But it does not work and I need the page to automatically grow up.
This is what I have in the CSS:
/* Page */
#page-wrapper {
overflow: auto;
height: auto;
text-align: center;
}
#page {
overflow: auto;
width: 1120px;
margin: 0px auto;
padding: 50px 40px;
color: #8F8F8F;
min-height:700px;
height:auto;
}
And HTML:
<body>
<div id="banner">
<div class="img-border">
<div id="header-wrapper">
<div id="header">
<div id="logo">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="page-wrapper">
<div id="page">
<div id="wide-content">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
It is very unclear what it is that you want.
In your first line you say you want a footer, but your HTML and CSS don't show any footers.
If you want a footer which sticks to the bottom of the page, have a look at the CSS Sticky Footer.
You shouldn't need the height in there at all... a div will grow or shrink with the amount of content inside of it. Try removing height: auto; completely.
If though you mean that you want to make the content section 100% of the page height even when there isn't enough content, this should help Make div 100% height of browser window
Do you mean you want the footer of your page at the bottom and the div imbetween to take up the remaining space (it's a little difficult to determine from your wording)?
If this is you what you want, I'd suggest looking at this blog post:

How to fix height 100% in content page ? CSS and Div
Header=72px
Content Height=100%
footer=72px
I would like to fix expend Content height 100% full screen.
Best Regards
If I understand correctly, I think you want the header and footer to each be 72px high, and the content to take up 100% of the remaining space. So the footer is pushed to the bottom of the page.
Markup, place this so #container is the only direct child of body. In other words place all of your content is inside the #header, #body, and #footer.
<div id="container">
<div id="header"></div>
<div id="body"></div>
<div id="footer"></div>
</div>
Style
html,
body {
margin:0;
padding:0;
height:100%;
}
#container {
min-height:100%;
position:relative;
}
#header {
padding:10px;
height:72px;
}
#body {
padding:10px;
padding-bottom:72px; /* Height of the footer */
}
#footer {
position:absolute;
bottom:0;
width:100%;
height:72px; /* Height of the footer */
}
If your content is in a div, give it a height as follows
<div id="container">
<div id="header">
</div>
<div id="content">
</div>
<div id="footer">
</div>
</div>
div#container
{
height: 100%;
}
div#header
{
height: 72px;
}
div#content
{
height: 100%;
}
div#footer
{
height: 72px;
}
