    this has been bugging me for some time.

    i have tried to keep my footer file which is in a php format at the bottom of my page. i have tried

    #footer {
    position: absolute;
    bottom: 0px;
    left: 0px;
    }

    but it just seems to got to the bottom of the browser window which is not good. my solution for now is to position not to move and work my content so that it does not go past the footer.

    i am sure there is a solution for this but i am not sure where to find this.. could you help if you could.

    thanks again

    Put the footer after your content and let flow take care of it... and stay away from absolute positioning.
