Hello,

 

Can some experts please help me to check how can I edit the page height of these files? I tried to adjust the footer css but it only moved the footer image higher and not really the whole page height.

 

Please advise.. I am very new to css and have no idea how to make it auto adjust the page height from this file. thank you.

 

my css : 

@charset "utf-8";

What haku said only goes for the hight property, not the min-height property.

 

Your problem is that you have positioned the text class absolutely. Using absolute positioning is not bad in it self, in fact i use it on most of my sites to some degree. But it just doesn't work well when you have footer, so if you want to maintain a footer, and still allow all your columns to push the footer further down, depending on what column is highest, then you should really use a tabel based approach. There are float based layouts, but they require additional wrappers for each column in the page.

 

I modified your source a little, but it could really use some cleaning up as well.

If you can live with only having the main content column push the footer, then fine. But this would pretty much call for a redesign, if the height of your navigation columns later  extends that of the content column.
