footer issue

I found a site that explained how to make the footer STICK to the bottom. Of course it isn't working properly. At first glance does anybody see what I messed up?

Many thanks!

Get down! How to keep footers at the bottom of the page

I know the XHTML isn't valid due to the flash file, I'll adjust that later.
Just the footer is what's bothering me.

Try adding....

#footer {
position:absolute;
left:100px;
top:400px;

and adjust the values as needed

I do have it set at absolute...
Not following you on the left and top.. how will adjusting left and right keep that at the bottom. Sorry if that's a stupid question.
I have the margin set at 0px, auto right now to center it left and right.

Here is an example

w3schools.com/Css/tryit.asp?filename=trycss_position_absolute]Tryit Editor v1.4


Play around with that and it will show you how you can physically adjust things

Don't use absolute positioning... what if the page size changes?
Try The Man in Blue > Experiments > footerStickAlt

A List Apart: Articles: Exploring Footers
CSS-Based Footers: Modern Solutions | Design Showcase | Smashing Magazine
A CSS Sticky Footer

to help understand better. sticky footers are left better OUTSIDE your wrapper div. and then just adjust margin heights.

INXS.. thanks, I was using one of the methods listed, and tried something different, but went back to the third one you listed. Works well.

Thank you!!!
