keffodan Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Im working with dreamweaver at the moment trying to make my first site. i have my page set up lik so <body> <div id="container"> <div id="sitelogo"> Content for id "sitelogo" Goes Here </div> <div id="header">content for header goes her </div> <div id="navbar">Content for id "navbar" Goes Here</div> <div id="lrftnavbar">Content for id "lrftnavbar" Goes Here</div> <div id="footer">Content for id "footer" Goes Here</div> </div> </body> linked to this style sheet: @charset "utf-8"; #container { background-color: #CCC; height: 768px; width: 1366px; border: thin solid #FFF; } #header { background-color: #CCC; height: 50px; width: 1213px; border-bottom-width: thin; border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-color: #FFF; clear: right; float: right; border-right-width: thin; border-right-style: solid; border-right-color: #FFF; } #sitelogo { float: left; height: 101px; width: 150px; border-bottom-width: thin; border-bottom-style: solid; border-right-color: #FFF; border-bottom-color: #FFF; border-left-color: #FFF; border-right-width: thin; border-right-style: solid; border-top-color: #FFF; } #leftnavbar { clear: both; float: left; height: 616px; width: 150px; border-right-width: thin; border-right-style: solid; border-right-color: #FFF; } #navbar { float: right; height: 50px; width: 1214px; border-bottom-width: thin; border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-color: #FFF; border-right-width: thin; border-right-style: solid; border-right-color: #FFF; } #footer { clear: both; float: left; height: 5px; width: 1366px; border-top-width: thin; border-top-style: solid; border-top-color: #FFF; border-right-width: thin; border-right-style: solid; border-right-color: #FFF; } *{margin:0; padding:0; background-color:#CCC } The problem is that when i changed the footer height to anything different it stays the same in the live view regardless of browser. My design view is a mess but my live view is ok( bar the fact that it wont change). Any advice on how i should structure the page differently or if what im doing is completely wrong? all the divs are in the container id div aside from that they're separate. I intend to put 6 div tags within the nav bar( within the container) to make 6 drop down links, any advice on how to do this?? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Ronald Hyde Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 The container height may be limiting the footer height. I don't know exactly what you mean by drop down links, otherwise i could maybe help on that. There are many drop down menus available on the web. You might just want to search for one you like and use that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
