Anyone help and check out the footer please

[Andrew]

Heya

Can someone check ou the footer of a site I am currently putting together for my wifes friend please

http://www.margarethudsonholistics.co.uk

The footer (copyright etc) appears a little way up the page on her PC, OK on mine.

I have checked the code and it appears fine at first glance.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

Andrew

Also not at the bottom on my laptop with E7.

As I have relied on Dreamweaver to set the template for the pages, I trusted it.

I am not an expert at coding so can someone take a look at the source code and see where the problem is please?

Up the page for me too, quite ironic actually with the valid css and xhtml contained in that area. Get yourself firefox and firebug, a must have for all web designers, it will show you the problem. It can only be heights, floats or positioning.

I don't think you've got a clear tag <div style="clear: both;"></div> after your left and right column so the footer is moving up.

P.S. If these are floated you can arrange the code as right column then left column in the code as it'll still perform the same but be better for SEO as it'll present the main content higher in the source code. You could provide a skip navigation link if you need to for accessibility.

I am not an expert, a bit of a newbie really as I rely on Dreamweaver :confused:

So can any one tell me what I should do?

Have you downloaded Firefox & Firebug like mentioned (click on 'inspect' once open)? You do not have a clear problem, you have a height problem, you have defined heights for some reason and these heights are not high enough, so remove or increase them.

Doing it as I type now Lee

As Lee says, it's a height issue. Look at the height of the id leftcolumn and increase or remove it.

I stand corrected at first glance I thought this was based on the Actinic left/right float template which doesn't have a clear. :D
