Unfortunately, the background applies only to the page to the extent of the viewport height. Which means that if the page is talle

Hi Brett, I feel your pain™. My suggestion might be a bit unwelcome on this message board but from personal experience, the only way I've been able to get a footer to stick consistently in all browsers is by using a table for layout. This is a pretty good resource if you want to go down t
