[LEFT]my page has a header,a body and a footer. I want to give a static value to header and footer but the body will have an % height. currently my values are;[/LEFT] header : 45px body : 88.4% footer : 22px with these values it fits 1024 \* 768 but when I view the page at 1280 \* 1024 there is a blank space under the footer which has a 29px height. I want this page to fit every resolution. You can view the page at [www.abus.terzzi.com/menu](http://www.abus.terzzi.com/menu) ---

yeah, that’s not going to work. think about it mathematically: 45px and 22px are different percentages of the total resolution from monitor to monitor. so on your monitor, they are 11.6%, but that’s not going to be true for everyone. then what? if they’re higher than 11.6% who knwos what happens. if they’re lower than 11.6%, what section will make up the remainder? you can have this setup though: header: 45px body: remainder footer: 22px ---

Try not to EVER design resolution-specifically Fluid layouts that expand and contract to the user’s screen without breaking the site is what it is all about these days. ---

[quote=fasterthanlight™;1985199]Try not to EVER design resolution-specifically Fluid layouts that expand and contract to the user’s screen without breaking the site is what it is all about these days.[/quote] Thats what I am trying to achieve, the reason that i gave px heights to my footer and header is that it contains some images like logos. So the solution is, i guess making the header and footer % too. But header has an background image attached to it, that can affect maybe. And I need to make my image’s width and height %. ---

img width and height are in px, not %. the solution is to do it the way i mentioned. ---

your body height shouldn’t be declared, it should just be fluid and it will stretch the height of the page if there’s enough content. ---
