Hi all:

Been working on learning CSS. I haven't uploaded my website yet, but I uploaded one page to yahoo geocities. It's only viewable in Mozilla (not IE) and it's the only way I know how to show you my page online (let me know a better way :o ).

My problem is the footer won't stay at the bottom of the page.

I did try adding height:100% to the body of the css code, but no luck.

The page is at http://ca.geocities.com/dustbear2001/objectv.html

Please help. :)

It stays on the bottom of the page for me in both FF and IE.

And Opera it seems.

You have a rather large ("bloated") meta tag there... META tags are, for the greater part these days, ignored by SEARCH 'bots & spiders. Of the few that DO actaully read them (I beleive that geocities.com still does), using more than approx. 56-words in the content="" is 'cramming' (a form of "spamming"), and it gets ignored (the entire tag) anyway. -Just thought it worth a mention...

I see that my css styles are not visible. Probably due to some geocities thing. How do I get my page on the net for you all to see then? :confused:

THanks WebJoel for the Meta tag tip!

A quick note: I just added my .css file to geocities. The styles are now visible.
