Hello all. First, I have to say I'm somewhat new to web design, and this site has proven to be incredibly helpful for getting up on my feet. Hopefully, you can help to guide me now that I've hit my first cross-browser compatibility issues.
Currently, I'm working to put together my photography portfolio, using WordPress and K2 as a bit of a CMS. (Planning to incorporate a blog in the future). However, my main goal at the moment is to get a static portfolio page set up, with a static Bio / Contact form page.
In the portfolio page, I have an iFrame which calls an HTML page filled with a 100% (Vert and Horiz) scaleable flash content. The Bio page is nothing but a <p> element at the moment.
What I'm trying to do is create a page layout where my footer will remain at the bottom of the browser window, with the #content div scaling the full, remaining height of the browser.
I've managed to accomplish this on WebKit browsers, and IE (although not perfectly,) by setting a height 75% height to the inner most containing div (#primary), however not in Firefox. The reason I say not perfectly is because as you resize vertically, you can eventually create too much space below the footer, or conversely, cover a portion of the footer if you go too tiny.
Hopefully you guys will be able to take a look at my site, and help me diagnose these issues I'm having. I can't begin to tell you how much your help will be appreciated.
(Oh, and in IE, for some reason my header description is collapsing and wrapping to two lines... any ideas?)
hey thanks for that. it was helpful for getting my footer to stay at the bottom. now it seems the issue i have is getting my #content div to fill in it's available space
any ideas? it's not really a big deal on the text pages, but on the gallery page.....
.secondary div { margin: 20px 0 0; padding: 0; position: relative; }
.skiplink { display: none; }
#primary .metalink a, #primary .metalink a:visited, /* The Metalink class takes care of the comments, edit, rss and trackback links next to the titles */ .secondary .metalink a, .secondary .metalink a:visited, .secondary span a, .secondary span a:visited { color: #999; font-weight: normal; }
#brians-latest-comments ul li span a, #brians-latest-comments ul li small a, .sb-comments-blc ul li span a, .sb-comments-blc ul li small a { color: #999; font-weight: normal; word-spacing: -1px; }
#brians-latest-comments ul li, .sb-comments-blc ul li { margin-bottom: 6px; }
#brians-latest-comments ul li > a[title=\"Go to the comments of this entry\"], .sb-comments-blc ul li > a[title=\"Go to the comments of this entry\"] { position: absolute; right:0; color: #999; }

you have to just set your #container height to 100% and have to define
html, body{ height:100%, margin:0px; padding:0px;}
may be this will help you..
sorry you already define this in your css
I have make certain changes in your css..
implement this css in your page
In Firefox, my .content div, and its content still collapses.
