What i'am trying to achieve is: - a 2 columns layout with vertical borders where the 2 columns stretch to the bottom of the viewport (even when both columns only have one or 2 lines of text)
- combined with a footer that sticks to the bottom of the viewport i started almost a half year ago and i thought this wouldn't be too difficult, but it turned out to be not that easy at all, t.i. if you want it to work accross browsers due to circumstances, i had to stop my attempts a couple of months ago this is how far i came then: http://beta.erikvisser.net/bart/old/ (css doesn't validate because of an ie hack: word-wrap) i understood that this mockup is unstable so i try to resolve this problem i found this: http://limpid.nl/lab/css/fixed/footer and combined it with this: http://www.fu2k.org/alex/css/onetruelayout/example/interactive?order=2-1&width=50-49.5&equal_height=1 Resulting in getting almost what i want: http://beta.erikvisser.net/bart/new/1/ The only thing it does not yet do is: both columns stretching down to the bottom of the viewport even if they each only have a few lines of text you can see this the best when you zoom-out quite a bit before fixing this short coming i like your opinions My questions are: - is new this a better approach compared with the original approach as shown on http://beta.erikvisser.net/bart/old/ - or is there a better aproach? - any remarks are welcome - and how can i let both columns stretch to the bottom of the viewport, even when both contain hardly any text? thanks, Erik ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
