[Pro] Item position

How do I make an HTML item stay at the bottom of the page?
When I add a large page of text it overruns the item at the bottom of the page.

Many of us long-time users recommend learning the Inline Layout technique.
It’s a method of inserting html item structures “inside” one another
instead of layering them “on top” of one another. That way, as they grow
(or shrink) with content, they would “push” the footer down the page – it
would always keep is place.

Here is a downloadable example you can try

Here are some screencasts from Thomas Kimmich - which I think are for
version 5 though I understand he is in the process of updating them for Pro
6 (listed as BoxModel series) http://kimmich-dm.de/screencasts.php

Best luck to you.

Thanks Ernie.
All this is a bit beyond me. Can I use your sample as a master and add pages from there?

Of course! This sample is meant to be a learning tool - by all means, use
it :slight_smile:

In FW6 using Relative Page Layout can you not just set the footer item as bottom aligned 0px?

You can also do this in version 5 and 4 as well. The problem is that the
bottom of the browser window is not the same as the bottom of the content.
Your content will grow below the bottom of the window, but a footer treated
this way will never go below the window bottom and will obstruct your
content from being viewed.

I can imagine there is a way to do this with RPL, however Inline Layout
makes it so easy and reliable.

I think one solution is Paul’s Make footer action:

Never used - never needed.

Quick note to my screencasts:

Yes - based on V5.6.5 but the basic work and knowledge about inflow-items is for all versions the same. A journey through 6 as soon as possible.

Cheers

No - your footer is at the bottom of the browser window, not at the bottom of the page content.
