Hi!

I'm stuck with a problem that I though should be easy to solve......but no.

I have made a template page for my website. This page consist of a header, a left navigation menu, a right navigation menu, and a footer. The header and menues are all positioned using position: absolute;. I also have a middle column that is positioned absolute.

The only content which will change is in the middle column. So I want a footer that stays at the bottom of the page regardless of the height of the middle column, therefore I can't position it absolutely.
But whatever i do the footer goes to the top of my page, over the header.

This probably has a very easy solution, but for some reason I can't figure it out.

ok, I think I have solved it.

I guess the problem was that I used absolute positioning. Have to use float.

That really messed up many hours of work!!! I think I will start to collect stamps instead of this webdesign stuff! :eek:
