Yeah I know, it ain't programming. Find a better section and move it

I need to get a copyright statement put at the bottom of a webpage, but the page is made of tables within tables, and I can't seem to find a way to make the statement stay at the bottom of each page (instead of being in the last row of the table, which usually put it in the middle of the page).

My question is, is there a tag that will make text stay at the bottom of the page? Or just an easy way to make that happen?

Thanks all you gurus

Maybe you could make a new table after the "tables within tables" and put the copyright info in there. That way it would be the last thing on the page.

ya very easy if you are using an apache webserver with mod_perl.
heres the docs and a example ok ok its not in the spirt of the question but its a very good try. aside from that i would sujest ssi maybe.

i say put it in a div tag...

<div class="footer">copyright info goes here</div>

then in your stylesheet, set "position: absolute; and bottom: 0px;" you can also mess with the z-index to keep it on top of your page's content. you can probably also do this with dhtml or frames, or other things....

where do I put the Div tag at? beginning of the page in the head? in the body? or where I actually want it on the page?

soopafreek · 03-13-2004, 08:12 AM

you'd put it in the body section. since the stylesheet code will handle the placement of the content, it can go pretty much anywhere within the body section.

for simplicity's sake i'd make it the last thing on the page before your closing tags.

if you want to see an example, go here and view source the code and download the stylesheet.

the copyright is on the bottom left corner of the page.
