CSS Help.

Right am baffled :|

Am putting together a website, originally using GoLive.

Someone said to me that Dreamweaver was better for CSS sites.

So i looked into it.

Problem is:

When i open my site within dreamweaver. All my css layers are not aligned correctly. Look :





However when i preview the site using a browser it looks fine:

It's best to write X/HTML and CSS by hand. WYSIWYG editors, like GoLive and DreamWeaver's "Design View", create junk code.

Perhaps you could show us the X/HTML and CSS for that page.

It's a cool design, hopefully you can get it to work.
As Kravvitz has pointed out, the code that you have might look confusing and all junky... don't let that discourage you from tackling the HTML yourself... It's really not that hard to pick up.

If you can somehow provide the code to us, we can try to have a look and correct some messy things... in all honesty, if the page looks fine in the browsers (that's IE, Firefox, Opera, Safari), don't worry what it looks like in Dreamweaver.

I really like your design.

hi thanks for the reply. I've sorted my first problem out now thank you.

I have run into this one now though !

The problem i am finding, is that my footer is not at the foot of the page when the content in the middle of the page is not big enough.

When i add a doze of lines to the main layer it's OK.

please check these : Works ok with content in the middle
Click here

without much content - footer rises.
Click Here


I've spend 3 hours try to sort out this annoying problem out.
Basically i want the footer to main a defined size, remaining at the very bottom of the page.

Would someone be kind enough to assist me please ?

would some be kind enough to check the code and help me please

Check out this technique.

Why did you give #footer height:1px;?

Why is #footer a member of the first_child class?

Of course that works, as long as your using DIV's you might have to rename your the link to the footer.. You also might need to put a correct doc type in the header info. Fix's wonders on these issues.
