CSS Div Positioning

[mommatc]

Anybody know how to cause a DIV to be aligned to the bottom of the page? If you
go to: [url]http://www.tilaru.com/NewSite/index.php[/url] you'll see that my footer (which
includes the Designed by: and Copyright Info) seems to be aligning itself
according to the length of the main content div in the center of the page :(
I need it to be at the absolute bottom of the page.

Also - is there a way to tell the Main Div and the Right Nav Div to be the
same hieght without absolute height values?

I'm sure there is an easy work-around to this little issue I'm having - but
I'm new to CSS for layout and the answer seems to be eluding me:confused;

Thanks,
MommaTC

No, and, maybe, respectively.

To have something always at the bottom of the page, you could use frames
(ew!). Or, you could use javascript to dynamically position the element to
the bottom, but this relies on javascript. There is not a good way to do it
with CSS, however, since it would have to be removed from the normal flow
(this means it would have to go to the bottom of the viewport even though
there is not code flow or content that would put it there.

To have two divs always be the same height, nest one (the taller) in the
other (the shorter). As the taller one grows vertically, it will stretch
the shorter one too. If you want to have content side-by-side, you will
have to float the taller one. Clear the float before closing the shorter
div, and it will force the shorter div to stretch to contain the taller one.

Great - would you happen to know the JavaScript to cause the footer to be at the bottom of the page?
