Hi there,

A good while ago I posted a request about how I could get copy right message
always be a fixed distance from the bottom of another layer / table.
This meant I would be able to make the content of a particular page be as
long as necessary and then the copyright message always be a fixed distance
from the bottom of the text.

I read all your useful messages, but could just not get it to work for me. I
have decide to post the actual page and see if anyone can recommend how I
would achieve what I'm after.

Take a look at:

http://www.d-geo.com/about-test.htm

and see the copyright message at the bottom- this is a fixed position using
a class that has an absolute positioning, but bearing in mind the rest of
the page layout (as in the rest of the website is already rolled out in the
current style), how do I add the copyright information so that it is in a
fixed position below the text (without using Javascript).

Also in an ideal world, the position of the copyright text would also be at
a maximum vertical position on the page. Therefore if the text part is quite
small on the page, the copyright message would only come up to a maximum
point on the page (so it does not end up being too high on pages with a
little text). This part is not as important.

Hope this makes sense.

Kind regards

Dave
