is quirky and causes more cross browser headaches than its really worth.
Maybe my knowledge of css isn't wide enough to adequately implement them,
but everything I have done/seen/read with css basically ends up sounding
like this : "You can do this, but not with that browser you need to do this
instead but that won't work with version x.x" and it just goes on and on...
I actually cfinclude my headers and footers in Application.cfm and
OnRequestEnd.cfm And I fail to see why this is such a bad idea? So I have
decided to limit use of CSS in my sites to things that work on most
browsers.

Note that it is not good practice to use OnRequestEnd.cfm for any display
outputs. (The same goes for Application.cfm)
I understood that the Mickael's problem was not how to get something
appended to every called template, rather how to get a display piece to be
presented at the bottom of the browser window (no matter what template is
called).

| Mike, as Hugo stated definately avoid frames for this tip.
|
| Use the "OnRequestEnd.cfm" template.
|
| Unlike the "Application.cfm" template, OnRequestEnd.cfm is
| executed AFTER
| all other cfm templates. Very handy and I haven't worked out
| a better way to
| use it from what you require.
|
| In fact that is what I use for the "footer" at
| www.actcfug.com. There IS a
| way to use it with frames but it usually requires using
| <CFABORT> at the end
| of the template which probably isn't good practice - but it
| works at any
| rate. You could use the <CFABORT> method at the end of a
| template in say a
| small popup where your usual footer either does not "fit" or is not
| appropriate.

| Two ways:
|
| * Frames, I think you should avoid it for this case.
| * CSS. I found a good way on the web somewhere (now link).
| You can look at
| the source and the css of this page, which uses a CSS
| method to do this:
| http://globalis.no/admin/ <http://globalis.no/admin/>

| | Hello All,

| |

| |
| | Is there a way to handle this?
| |
| | Thanks
