Rebecca,
I have run across a similar problem in my work. My solution was to set
the footer to float:left and a negative top margin . It works well in
most circumstances. The only place it doesn't work that I know of is
when the content is really short, this can be resolved with a min-height
I have setup a demonstration site at:

Hope this helps.

Yeah, I thought it might do that.
Here's the thing, though: the folks on the committee want the bottom
of the footer lined up with the
bottom of the content on longer pages -- like this:
http://kenyonbuildout.babywhale.net/visit/subpage.html Knocking out
the positioning would align the
top of the footer with the bottom of the content, I believe.
I'm betting this can't be done... but what do I know ;)

Sorry about the previous empty post--what I intended to say was: I
played
around with the css in Firebug and by removing the absolute
positioning from
the footer div, it dropped down below the nav and allowed all the
links to
work again. Do you need that div to be absolutely positioned?

Hi all,
Long time, no post.
Here's the problem of the day. I'm working with a web design
vendor who
has decided that they need
to use Javascript to fix what should be a CSS problem. I don't
find
this acceptable, but I'm having
a hard time convincing anyone who makes decisions of that. So
instead,
I've got to try to solve the
problem so we don't have a broken page for people with no
javascript.
I've had to put this up on my own personal server to show to you.
Here's the page:
http://theredsetter.com/test/subpage.html
Visit it without Javascript and watch the address roll up over the
navigation; visit it with to see
what it should look like. Anyone have a fix for that that
doesn't use
Javascript?
Notice that with Javascript off you *can't* use the navigation at
all
because the footer gets in the
way.
Ignore the purple bar at the top -- it's supposed to have images
in it.
If you notice any other problems, please tell me, but please
don't yell.
I don't have a whole lot
of weight in this process and really can't get things changed.
Thanks,
~Rebecca
