I've got following code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Test</title>
<style>
* {margin: 0; padding: 0;}
#page {
size: A4;
page-break-inside: avoid;
page-break-after: always;
margin-top: 38mm;
margin-bottom: 38mm;
}
header {
position: fixed;
left: 0px;
right: 0px;
top: 0px;
height: 18mm;
margin-bottom: 20mm;
}
footer {
height: 20mm;
position: fixed;
left: 0px;
right: 0px;
bottom: 0;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<header>
<h1>Header Header Header</h1>
</header>
<div>Content Page 1<div style="page-break-after: always;"></div>Content Page 2</div>
<footer>
<h1>Footer Footer Footer</h1>
</footer>
</body>
</html>
i'd expect, that the header and footer are positioned at the top/bottom of the page and the content has a margin of 38mm. But the header and footer also have a top/bottom margin of 38mm. i also tried to give the div which is wrapped arround the content a margin and remove the margin from #page. it works for the first page, but not for the second.
Anybody has a solution for this?

What is the best way to create a sticky footer?
Can anyone explain why I've got this space appearing above header & below footer when I have content (h1 p) in in my header section.
For the header gap, your h1 and p tags have a default padding and margin, you may want to remove them or reduce them to your liking
h1, p {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
html,
body {
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
h1,p {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
header {
background-color: orange;
position: relative;
height: 400px;
width: 100%;
color: white;
text-align: left;
}
footer {
background-color: #202020;
color: white;
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
height: 60px;
bottom: 0;
}

A "sticky" div can be achieved using position: fixed; in your footer CSS. Fixed means that the on-screen position will never change. Or rather you should follow the instructions posted there.
Concerning the space, it is probably because of the default styles applied to h1. Use a debugger to see those default styles and override them with your custom css.
Firefox and Chrome have built in debuggers that also let you view styles and are very efficient for debugging. Usually right click > "inspect element" then go for the CSS tab which lets your select and see styles applied to elements.
In your example, you are not "resetting" the h1 and p tags. By default these elements have some extra margin.
Try adding the following code to your css.
h1, p {
margin: 0;
}
Also check out the HTML5 CSS Sticky Footer.
you may use flex prperties
.wrapper may scroll, header & footer are sticky

I saw this comment you posted on another answer:
If desktop only, then I would go with fixed positioning; however, iOS has problems rendering fixed positioning at times. – SergeantHacker
Try removing height 100% from body and html.
I have a site with two footers. One is very well behaved as a 'fixed' footer that is always visible at the bottom of the page. The other footer is larger and should be below all content, only appearing when all content is scrolled through (if the content is bigger than the page, it shouldn't be visible until you scroll to the bottom). However, it does need to be sticky so that if there's very little content it doesn't ride up and leave an awkward white gap.
Right now it's displaying in the middle of the page. :( Help?

You're looking for a technique like FooterStickAlt, which keeps the footer below the content, but also keeps the footer at the bottom of the viewport if the content isn't as tall enough to push it down that far.
Put simply, everything except the footer gets wrapped in a containing element which has min-height: 100%, and then the footer is pulled up with a negative top margin. This particular technique necessitates knowing the height of your sticky footer.
https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/sticky-footer/ and http://cssstickyfooter.com are the same idea.
Can someone explain me why the first code does result in a fixed footer with a small margin on the right as I used an extra 'div' but that without this as seen in the second code it doesn't show a margin on the right? Thanks!

Try right instead of margin-right:
footer {
clear: both;
position: fixed;
bottom: 0px;
text-align: right;
width: 100%;
background-color: fuchsia;
right: 20px;
}

Your footer tag is already taking 100% of the width.. So margin will be out of it.
It worked in the first case because you gave the width to the parent. so margin on the child worked. try to add 100% to footer in first case and even that wont work as required.
This should be a pretty trivial issue, but it's causing me a bit of a headache.
I have an html layout, summarized with the relevant code below. Basically I have the <section> and <aside> acting as the main content, and the right handed content. I am trying to make sure they will always behave in this manner, regardless of any kind of funky boundaries caused by borders, margins, padding, etc. The solution seemed to be simply setting them to have absolute and relative positioning.
This did achieve my desired result, but I am having trouble with the underlying content. The <article> does not stretch to the right height. Since the height is not always determinable at code-time, giving it a set height is not an option. My intended goal is that the underlying <article> background will stretch to accommodate no matter how high either of the <section> or <aside> panes become. Any ideas?

The reason I mentioned that absolute positioning is, in my opinion, inappropriate in this situation is that it removes elements from the normal document flow which will most likely cause issues with other elements on the page. At best, it's just unnecessary. At worst, you'll pull your hair out trying to figure out problems. :)
A good article on the subject: http://www.tyssendesign.com.au/articles/css/absolute-positioning-pitfalls/
i have been trying to implement a bottombar for my site, however the vision i have seems to me to be rather difficult. Maybe you can enlighten me?
I want to have a bottombar that sits at the bottom of the browser window if the content does not spill over the edge, but if the content does spill over i want the bottombar at the bottom of the content.
I would prefer if it was CSS solution but it might be better/easier in something else, i dont know. Also no PHP.
I hope you understand me.
And thanks in advance for any answers.
Have you looked at http://www.cssstickyfooter.com/
Assuming the height of the bottom bar is fixed it's fairly simple. eg.:
<!DOCTYPE html "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head>
<style type="text/css">
html, body { height: 100%; margin: 0; padding: 0; }
#content { min-height: 100%; }
* html #content { height: 100%; } /* IE6 hack */
#trailer { height: 2em; margin-top: -2em; background: yellow; }
#pad { height: 2em; }
</style>
</head><body>
<div id="content">
Content content content content content content content content content content content.
<div id="pad"></div>
</div>
<div id="trailer">
Bit at the bottom.
</div>
</body></html>
Something like this will do the trick, (note that the extra wrapping div with some padding-bottom is required in order to make sure the footer does not overlap the contents),
<html>
<head>

html, body {

height: auto !important;
height/**/: 100%; /* for IE6 */

}

margin-top: -100px;
