Hi,
I am having a problem with my CSS whereby the right hand column in a 2 column layout is extending beyond the footer.
I have tried playing with the clear: both;
property but I cannot get it to work..
the second column has the id column2
both columns use the class column
. The footer html has the id footerWrapper
Both columns and footer are div
tags.
My CSS (abridged):
.column {
width: 49%;
}
#column2 {
width: 50%;
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
margin-left: 50%;
float: left;
}
#footerWrapper {
background-color: #333333;
border-top: 2px #FF6600 solid;
color: #666;
}
