Setting the height to 100% on my web page is messing things up. The footer is not staying on the main page, it’s going past the main viewable area…. how do I prevent this from happening so that it stays on the bottom of the page?

    Try putting the footer inside the <div id="bdy"></div> and positioning it on the bottom.
    Since the #bdy has min-height: 100%, it pushes the footer down.

    If you place the footer inside the #bdy, give it the style position: absolute; bottom: 0;.

    UPDATE:

    Ah, that is because the position: absolute; on the footer makes the instruction bottom: 0; stick it to the closest ancestor which does have not position: static(which is default). You can fix the issue by applying position: relative; to #bdy.
