Question

I been following a tutorial for making my webpage css 100% height from this SITE. I been able to achieve what i want but now I am having an issue with my footer. Every time I resize the page smaller the footer will slightly scroll upwards into the content. Is there a way i can stop that? Here is my Live EXAMPLE

Thank you

<style>
html, body {
    margin:0;
    padding:0;

Add margin-bottom:60px; to the #content css definition.

Full block:

#content {
    margin-left: 240px;
    margin-right: 0 auto;
    margin-bottom: 60px;
    background: #ebebeb;
    padding: 5px;
    width:635px;
    height: 400px;
}
