I'm trying to have a sticky footer on my page but with a twist compared to what I've seen before.
The top of the footer as to always be sticky at 50px after the content and a green color as to fill the rest of the footer until the end of the page.
You can see an example on http://enviro2012.tapagecommunication.com
The problem is even better illustrate if you clicl on the "send" button in the Facebook plugin at the bottom of the page.
Let me know if you need more info! :)
Thanks!
I've had this one before. I tried all sorts of methods, including checking the window height against the vertical position of the footer, then setting the footer height to the difference. It didn't work too badly across most browsers.
However, the most simple (and fast-rendering) solution was to add enough bottom padding to the footer to cover the gap on most window sizes. Assuming your content is always going to fill the majority of the page, a few hundred pixels should be more than enough – and renders properly the first time the page loads.

I found this question: CSS to make HTML page footer stay at bottom of the page with a minimum height, but not overlap the page
But this doesn't solve my problem, because the stone age email clients don't support all of this wizardy.
What is a good way supported cross most (or better all) email clients that pushes the footer to the bottom of the screen if the content isn't long enough?
When I set a min-height on the content the footer will sometimes outside of the screen and above is just a lot of whitespace.
position isn't an option here because thats not really supported and I don't want the footer to overlap my content.
Currently my footer has no fixed height.
As far as I'm aware, you can't. Website techniques require a calculation of the screen height, completed by the CSS method you're using and then distributing that dimension to the main content to allow the footer to sit perfectly at the bottom.
These techniques won't work in all email clients for all of the different screen sizes.
If your content is too short to reach the bottom of a phone screen, that's a bigger concern. I don't understand a full template build for a short message.
And setting a height on your content or padding the sections out enough so your footer is a little lower shouldn't be an issue in this day and age.
The fold is so over hyped.
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

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.
I have a page with 3 basic elements. You have your main content which runs down the center of the page at about 80% and has a white background. On the side of that main content you have the left and the right side at 10% each which for design reasons is grey. So far So good. Now I have my footer which as of recently was contained as a sticky footer and remained at the bottom of the page. I want the footer to be at 100% width and sit right under the content and if the page is being viewed on a screen that is too large then have the footer fill the rest of the page with white.
<p> I've tried everything that i know with the CSS I think I'm just missing something simple. I have to put some code in here to link to a fiddle </p>
Here is a link to the fiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/dPek3/
You fake it by making your body background color the same color as your footer. You usually have to have a wrapper that contains your content to overlap this change, but it is extremely effective and I would recommend it. You also need to clear your floats. Here is a working example: http://jsfiddle.net/dPek3/1/
I want to create a box-menu on the very bottom of the browser window.
It should stay at the bottom when the content doesn't fill up the entire screen
When the content overflows it should only be at the bottom when you scroll down (i.e. you can't see it if you don't scroll).
How do I do this?
I think what you are looking for is called a "sticky footer", and there are a couple of methods. I suggest you have a look at these sites:
http://ryanfait.com/sticky-footer/
http://www.cssstickyfooter.com/
Zoom in/out on each site in order to see how this appears when the content reaches the footer or does not.
Both methods fall short on one thing: They require you to know the height of the footer - but I have not seen any better solutions with only CSS.
