Keeping site footer at the bottom
I recently ran into a CSS issue that I could not figure out. I wound up contacting Richard over at Akira Media about it and he sent me to this site:
http://www.themaninblue.com/writing/perspective/2005/08/29/
It describes a technique using CSS that will keep a footer at the bottom of a browser window no matter how big the browser gets or how big the content gets.
Note: you must know the height of the footer for it to work and I wound up having to use some line breaks (
) inside the div tag right before the #footer div to make it work. I tested it on IE7 and the latest Mozilla and it seemed to work ok.

Glad footerstickalt worked out for you. It's a nifty little bit of CSS.
Ok, now I need some nice code to make subnavs using CSS. I used to use Dreamweaver's built in Javascript subnav maker but it is ugly.
Anybody know of a better way using css?
