Greetings, I'm new here, and am learning CSS design, but I'm having a slight bit of a problem and as I try diffrent things, I'm getting more lost. I have my own site with a dev page for testing my design here <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.g0nk.com/blog/dev.html">http://www.g0nk.com/blog/dev.html</a><!-- m --> and the stylesheet is <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.g0nk.com/blog/g0nk.css">http://www.g0nk.com/blog/g0nk.css</a><!-- m -->
What I am trying to do, is make the footer box stay to the bottom, under the main content area.. At first I aboslute positioned it to the bottom, but once the main content grew enough to get to the bottom, it would not push the footer down, only leave it in it's position and display under the footer..
I'm kinda at a loss now and not sure how to fix this.. any help would be appreciated.. Thanks!
