Hi, been a while since I reploie to this thread and I am doing it
thorugh someone else's PC, but I have still not resolved it. But your
examples and input have been very useful. My circumstances are a bit
different.

This is what I have. It is like this now because of the way the website
was built (learning more while devfelopming) so it is hard to change
aspects without a lot of work,

A summary example is, we I have two div's

<div>
<table class="tabletextstyle">
content
</table>
</div>

<div class="copyrightstyle">
Copy right text
</div>

In another file the styles are defined as

..copyright-text {
width:169px;
height:25px;
z-index:11;
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 10px;
color: #66CCFF;
margin-top:100px
}

..tabletextstyle{
position: absolute;
top: 150px;
left: 182px;
width: 437px;
height: 74px;
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
color: #FFFFFF;
z-index: 10;
}


Now the main table with the main page text is defined in many webpages
and I was reluctatnt to make changes to that. So from this I was trying
to make the copyright text be relative fixed distance from the bottom
of the main table text.


Trying to place the div for the copyright text like I have above did
not quite display it where I wanted it. I will keep reading, but if
there is a way to easily amend my code to make this work better then I
am open to suggestions.

Thanks

Dave
