Hi Everyone,
Again very simple.
I would like to make my footer the size of the body instead of the size of the main Div, if i change the width of the footer to width of the body its increased it in only one direction, if i then create a margin and put the opposite side as a negative, it then effect the contents within the footer, please see below a section from my style sheet:
body {
Background: #DEDEDE;
font-family: arial;
font-size: 12px;
margin: -20px 0px 0px 0px;
padding: 0px;
height: 1000px;
width: 900px;
}
#wrapper{
width: 900px;
height: 900px;
margin: 0px 200px 0px 200px;
background: white;
}
#footer{
clear: both;
height: 200px;
width: 900px;
text-align: center;
margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
font-family: arial, helvetica;
font-weight: bold ;
font-size: 11px;
background-color: black;
}
Would really love some help!
Thanks

Move your footer out of your wrapper.
You should not be setting height on your elements. That should be determined by content within plus top and bottom padding.
No need to repeat font-family, that cascades from body. No need for footer margin 0 0 0 0.
Thanks guy!
Its very re-assuring to see some people are happy to help beginners just on the basis to be kind!
Very grateful
