Hi all. (tried this on CSS-discuss but it looks like it went down just
as I asked my question!)
Deadline panic!
I have a relative content div and a relative footer div (see it here:
http://www.torbytes.co.uk/newindex.htm)
I was using height:600px on the content div to ensure that short pages
didn't have a "high" footer and then I discovered that (on long pages)
Opera put the footer at 600px regardless and the extra content of the
div ran over the footer. (whereas IE just extended the content div)
I removed height, but that looks silly on short pages.
I tried min-height but IE6.0 does weird stuff.
Anyone got any ideas (short of using a spacer gif in the content div!)
(I'm sure I could find an answer if I had time, but time is one thing I
don't have enough of right now.)
TIA
Tony
