footer question

When you are making a website, as you add content the footer goes down. When i make a site with not much content the footer is not at the bottom so i position it absolute and bottom:0;

My question is what if i have enough content for some pages but for others i don't and at the same time i don't want the footer that high on the page but at the bottom because then it will look weird. Anyone know what will i do in that case?

 

try giving a height property to your content container but would be better to see a live link

 

yea but the thing is i left the header and footer out of the container on purpose because i wanted the header and footer to take the whole page in width which it currently is. And then the content will be 1000px.

 

we have no idea about your code or page I can say nothing.

 

I figured it out. I made one of the main sections a certain height with a different id and another section in another page with a different id and height so they can each specifically be a certain height. So in a way you did help me,just that i needed a certain section with different id so they have their own unique height. Thanks for the help.
