Hello All,
I'm dealing with my footer right now for my site www brianmcurran com. I've
tinkered with my settings since my last post, and they now are:
#footer {
clear: both;
margin: 0; padding: 0;
height: 1%;
background: #222;
color: #fff;
}
#footer p {
margin: 0; padding: 10px 0 10px 10px;
}
Everything looks nice now, but question: Do I want to be using height:1%; ?
1. I thought it was a necessary hack for IE6, but I couldn't get any clarity
on the hack from a Google search.
2. Can't I just leave it out and let the #footer height be defined by the
contents?
Sincerely,
Brian
