Issue
I am new to CSS and am trying to set up a page so that there is always a fixed margin / space between the page's main content (sidebar / sections) and the footer (e.g. 120px) which should work cross-browser.
Also, in case there is very little content on a page the footer should always appear at least at the bottom of the (visible) screen.
I made multiple attempts by applying a class footer, including the following, but the margin is always ignored.
.footer {
color: #333;
font-size: 11px;
text-align: center;
vertical-align: bottom
}
.footer:before {
clear: both;
display: block;
height: 120px;
min-height: 120px;
}
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<!-- ... -->
</head>
<body>
<nav>
<!-- ... -->
</nav>
<section id="sidebar">
<!-- ... -->
</section>
<section id="main">
<!-- ... -->
</section>
<footer class="footer">
<div>Some text</div>
</footer>
</body>
</html>
Can someone help me with this?
Also, if anything should be changed regarding my HTML please let me know as well.
Solution
This should help:
html, body {
height: 100%;
}
body {
margin:0px;
padding: 0px;
}
.wrap {
height: auto;
margin: 0 auto -80px; /* footer height + space */
min-height: 100%;
padding: 0 0 80px; /* footer height + space */
box-sizing: border-box;
overflow: auto;
}
.footer {
background-color: #111111;
color: #eeeeee;
border-top: 1px solid red;
height: 60px; /* footer height */
padding-top: 20px;
display: block;
margin-top: 20px; /* space between content and footer */
box-sizing: border-box;
position: relative;
width: 100%;
}
<body>
<div class="wrap">
<nav>
<!-- ... -->
</nav>
<section id="sidebar">
<!-- ... -->
</section>
<section id="main">
<!-- ... -->
</section>
</div>
<footer class="footer">
<div>Some text</div>
</footer>
</body>
