perhaps looking at it a different way will work. :) i'm sure you've seen people using negative margins to code columns, but have you tried negative margins with your footer? you might wonder "why bother" with negative margins when you could just position things abolutely, but the advantage is that your footer can take up all of the bottom space, which i *think* is what you want. works just fine in ff1.5, opera8.52, and ie6. http://sltclan.com/images/cj/css-d/scrolling-content.html hopefully i understood you right this time. <crosses fingers> ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
