well... =)

 

I did that, but now my longer pages show a gap..

 

You can see it here: http://ticanew.com/public/classifieds.php

I see what your talking about. Uhm... try using a margin:0 0 8px on the #left instead of padding. And then remove the bottom-border on the #menubot. That "should" do it...

It worked for the most part - im happy with it.

The longer pages look great. But the homepage loses that white border on the bottom. If we cant get it perfect, thats okay - i doubt anyone will see it. Thanks.

Just mess with it until you get it right. But you should be able to add a 1px bottom border to the grey colored faux column and then use a 9px margin on the #left. Something like that...

ok, ill work at it then.

 

I have a small question - i am new at this, when i place margin or padding at :0 0 8px; which is top/left/bottom/right?

No problem, it goes like this. padding:0(top) 0(right) 8px (bottom) 0(left); In your case, the left and right are the same so they can be combined like this. padding:0 0(left/right) 8px; If the top/bottom and left/right are the same, they can be like this. padding:0(top/bottom) 10px(left/right);

The only time "I" use padding-left:10px instead of padding:0 0 0 10px; is when I need to override a padding rule above and I don't want to zero out the other values.

so, yeah. i almost posted a question. then something hit me. turns out i'm dumb and forgot to change a DIV ID while experimenting.

Anyway, I've been trolling this forum about a week and learned a ton from you guys. i only first started this project about 2 weeks ago and most of the time from then to now i've been watching Doctor Who instead

Point is you've really helped me out without my ever asking a question.

 

Thought I should post this for others to see when they come looking for how to build a footer.

It features multiple text areas on the same line as well as a link to firefox on a button.

I guessed my whole way thru this stupid thing cuz i guess its not too popular a feature.

Anyway, code;

(end of my) HTML

Hi, i have a new question. It seems that this should be easy but i cant get it to work.

I am trying to add a UL and OL to this page http://www.ticanew.com/public/about/tds.php

 

However, i need the margins to go back to default, but every time i try it messes up the menu since it also is a list.
