I am new to CSS and am trying to set up a page so that there is always a fixed margin / space between the page's main content (sidebar / sections) and the footer (e.g. 120px) which should work cross-browser.
Also, in case there is very little content on a page the footer should always appear at least at the bottom of the (visible) screen.
I made multiple attempts by applying a class footer
, including the following, but the margin is always ignored.
.footer {
color: #333;
font-size: 11px;
text-align: center;
vertical-align: bottom
}
.footer:before {
clear: both;
display: block;
height: 120px;
min-height: 120px;
}
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<!-- ... -->
</head>
<body>
<nav>
<!-- ... -->
</nav>
<section id="sidebar">
<!-- ... -->
</section>
<section id="main">
<!-- ... -->
</section>
<footer class="footer">
<div>Some text</div>
</footer>
</body>
</html>
Can someone help me with this?
Also, if anything should be changed regarding my HTML please let me know as well.
