Hi,
i have a simple css example, and i can't understand the behavior of one of my divs, when the horizontal scroll is displayed. so...when my browser window needs to display the horizontal scroll(when the window width is less than my div "content" width(1024px)), my div "footer" (that have the same "content's" parent and 100% width), seems to get an "extra blank space" on the right side. this space grows when I reduce the width of the window. any ideas about how can i get it off, or why it happens??thanks!
heres my code:
css:
<style type="text/css">
html, body {
height: 100%;
width:100%;
font-family:"Arial Black", Gadget, sans-serif;
font-size:11px;
font-variant:normal;
}
* {
margin: 0;
}
.wrapper {
min-height: 100%;
height: auto !important;
height: 100%;
margin: 0 auto -4em;
}
#content{
width:1024px;
margin:0px auto;
background-color:#990;
height:780px;
}
.footer, .push {
height: 4em;
width:100%;
}
#footer-content{
height:10px;
background-color:#09F;
width:100%;
}
</style>
html:
<body>
<div class="wrapper">
<div id="content">
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nullam scelerisque varius tortor vitae pretium. Quisque magna ipsum, accumsan sit amet pretium sed, iaculis feugiat nibh. Donec vitae dui eros, eu ultricies nulla. Morbi aliquet, nisi in tincidunt rutrum, nisl justo sagittis nisi, nec dignissim orci elit vitae tortor. </p>
</div>
<div class="push"></div>
</div>
<div class="footer" style="background-color:#900; width:100%;">
<div id="footer-content"></div>
</div>
</body>
