How can I use javascript to position an object at the bottom of the viewing area of the browser regardless of the height and width of the browser?

@russell_g_1Mar 24.2005 — you should be able to do it with absolute positioning. you just get the height and width of the client area and calculate where you want your "footer" to appear. hopefully it has a set height??
