I posted this in another “resolved” theread but I modified my CSS slightly as well as verifying it. The verification said that its all good except the overflow-x and overflow-y (which I dont know any way around)
I’m trying to make my CSS containers full page height with my footer always sitting at the bottom of the page, I went by everything in the other thread and it almost works but the footer dangles off the bottom of the page, it seems that I either get this, the footer way high just at the end of the text area or in front of the text.
any thoughts?
