I am coding a web interface for a University project and I have been dealing with this issue:
I want my footer fixed at the bottom so it is in place no matter which screen I am using or if I toggle the full screen mode
It works in all the other browsers except IE7 (I do not have to support previous versions)
HTML
<div id="menu">
<a href="information.html" rel="shadowbox;height=500;width=650" title="INFORMATION" >
<img src="images/info.png" alt="information icon" />
</a>
<a href="images/bricks_of_destiny.jpg" rel="shadowbox[gallery]" title="
