Re: [css-d] CSS footer article from A List Apart breaks when width is added (in ie6)

2009-04-15 Thread mx . cssdee 
Hi,

I use a pure CSS footer lock but have not tested it using a fixed width  
-might be worth a try:
http://matthewjamestaylor.com/blog/keeping-footers-at-the-bottom-of-the-page

Not sure why alistapart's version would break with width.
If I get a chance I'll have a play with their code and see if I can get it  
to work.

Ta,

~Mx

Yes, sorry, should have put that in:

http://www.alistapart.com/d/footers/footer_css3.html

I just successfully used the sticky-footer (http://ryanfait.com/ 
sticky-footer/, thank you list)
But because the of my design requirements (the nav bg extends past  
the left and right edges -not up yet but i will post it when it is) I  
had to employ a faux-columns technique to get the appearance of width  
in the content area.

What i seem to keep needing is a second box for the content area that  
i can style (width, bg color, etc) that will ALSO go to the bottom of  
the viewer.

I will put a link up as soon as i can.
Thanks,

 Dinshaw,

 Do you have a link to the demo? Try: http://cssstickyfooter.com,  
 not sure of the exact URL?
 If you Google 'Sticky Footer' you'll find it.

 I have been using this footer technique for a while:

 http://www.alistapart.com/articles/footers

 uses an absolutely positioned footer

 Example 3 is the final version that dose not use any scripting.

 It looks great in ie6 (and everything else) until you add a width
 declaration to the container

 #container {
  position: relative;
  min-height: 100%;
  height: 100%;
  voice-family: \}\;
  voice-family: inherit;
  height: auto;
  background:url(/images/bg/blue_bg.png) -3px 0 repeat-y;

  /* breaks if added */
  width:500px;
 }

 then the footer rises to the bottom of the content.

 Any one know why?

 Any one know a working bottom-of-the-browser-fixed footer with width
 technique?
 Thanks,
