Hi,
Is it possible to make the left, middle & right parts of my page extend to the bot <div> tag.
Currently the height is set to 70%, I want it to finish exactly 60px from the bottom regardless of screen resolution. I need it to work with IE 6.0, or lower.
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtm
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
</head>
<body>
<div id="top"></div>
<div id="menu"></div>
<div id="left"></div>
<div id="middle"></div>
<div id="right"></div>
<div id="bot"></div>
</body>
</html>
style.css shown below.
html, body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
background: #FFFFFF;
height: 100%;
}
#top{
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 60px;
background-color: #003366;
}
#menu{
position: absolute;
top: 60px;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 25px;
background-color: #FF3366;
}
#middle{
position: relative;
top: 86px;
margin-right: 150px;
margin-left: 150px;
height: 70%;
background-color: #7555DD;
}
#left{
position: absolute;
left:0px;
top: 86px;
width: 150px;
overflow: auto;
height: 70%;
background-color: #009900;
}
#right{
position: absolute;
right:0px;
top: 86px;
width: 150px;
overflow: auto;
background-color: #CC6600;
height: 70%;
}
#bot{
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 61px;
background-color: #999999;
}
I am new to CSS so any advice would be appreciated, thanks.
Thanks.

Hi,
If you are still interested this might be another solution. If it's just for internet explorer you can use javascript expressions as your css expression.
for example:
#middle
{
position: relative;
top: 86px;
height: expression(document.body.o
margin-right: 150px;
margin-left: 150px;
background-color: #7555DD;
}

what happens if the content is more than the screen resolution? Does the footer drop below the end of the content?
I have a layout which does somethign similar, at the moment with one column (the content column) and the header / footer. Its always a certain distance from the bottom.
If this is similar to what you want, let me know and i can modify it for three columns.
