I;m working on my V2 of my Dutch website but I cant get the footer down. I know the coding is not valid or neat, but that is because of the fact that I have got to update the site today.

Does anybody has got the solution to get the footer down?

The site: www.webkoop.nl/x2/

Well, I am trying to follow all the tables, etc. It appears you have this issue:

#footer {
clear:both; /* why clear? */
position:absolute;
left:35px;
width:961px;
height:89px;
top:10px;
}

Your whole page is absolute positioned. Then you have clear:both to an absolute positioned item, why? It is already out of the document flow. That may actually be pushing your footer all the way to the top since every other element technically does not exist within any flow. Try removing that clear.

I'd have to look further to see what else is going wrong. All this AP and tables is going to be troublesome.

Thanks for your reply, I get your point and deleted the clear:both; line but it did not result into anything

I wasn't sure the clear would do anything, just thought you should remove it.
Do you realize you have the footer 10 pixels from the top?

#footer {
clear:both;
position:absolute;
left:35px;
width:961px;
height:89px;
top:10px; /* this is from the top of the browser window - set it to around 700 px */
}

You should try to not use so much absolute positioning, there could be a nice flow with this site easily. If your content were to grow, you'd have to keep moving that footer down. Practice.

Also, use firefox firebug to work through these problems, I was able to test your site quickly in that.

Right, the clear is pointless with absolute positioning.

IE has serious problems with all that absolute positioning, you're going to run into more problems.
