I have add the footer to EasyCareBath.com, and I can get the div to work properly except for ".footer_box", it will not center. I have added "left: 15%" and when you blow the window up, it's no longer aligned. Am I missing something or did I do too much to the css?

Alter your .footer_box rule to this:
.footer_box {
height: 236px;
width: 1007px;
margin: 0 auto;
position: relative;
}
The margin: 0 auto; centers the footer_box.
The position: relative; makes it so your absolutely positioned columns are positioned based on the footer_box instead of the body.
Side note / an analogy I've always liked:
Think of the 'auto' as attaching a rubber band to that side of the item connected to the edge of the page... in this case, 'auto' is on the right AND the left, so - if there's a rubber band pulling from both left AND right, it will always center, regardless of screen size.
Fix your css as following:
.footer_box {
height: 236px;
margin: 0 auto;
position: relative;
width: 1007px;
}
You were on the right track:
.footer_box {
height: 236px;
width: 1007px;
position: relative;
margin: 0px auto;
}
The auto margin on left and right will make sure the footer is always centered, no matter what the screen size is.

My code is suppose to make a two-column layout, the header at the top, footer at the bottom, navigation at the left column in between the top and bottom, and finally the main at the right column. The problem is that the main is overlapping with the navigation column.

add this:
main{
float:left;
width:calc(100% - 150px);
}
I have added the new width (you might want to add a fallback) so the main always fit with your fixed sized nav (plus the padding on the wrapper)
Got the issue worked out. Just played around with your code a bit, thought you may find it useful.
Though calc() is tempting, it's not necessarily the best choice due to compat issues.

I see you have a class "floatleft", but you never assign it to anything.
Try giving your elements locations. For instance if you wanted something to float left tell it how from from the left it should go. In your CSS you may trying something like this in .floatleft{ float: left; left: 10px}. .floatright{ float: right; right: 10px;}.
So I have a div that is supposed to have 100% height. It's only parent element is <body>, so 100% should be the height of the window. But instead of spanning the height of the screen, it only is as high as the container element inside it. The funny thing is, if I use fixed positioning, it does what I want it to. Alas, I can't use fixed in the site layout. Here is my css. If you would like to see what the site looks like right now, here is the link: http://ion.comli.com/projects/

Any way I can get this div to span the whole 100%? I'm pretty sure there is a simple answer to this question, but I can't find it. Thanks in advance!
You have to make sure all parents of .content have a height defined.
So in your case what is missing is:
html, body {
height: 100%;
}
Alternative
Or you could position .content as fixed and you'd have the same effect but with a different approach
.content {
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
height: 100%;
}
Make body 100% high
html, body {
height: 100%;
}
I'm making a webpage with a fixed footer. If there is a lot of content, there must be a scroll bar. If there is only one line of input in the content-part, there is no need to scroll. The way the page is made now, gives me a scroll bar all the time! It scrolls just as far so that the header disappears from the screen. --> My header is 150px high and I can scroll exactly 150px. But I don't want this. What is wrong with my html or CSS?
This is the html:
<body>
<div id="header">
<h1>The <span>ultimate</span><br />DVD collection</h1>
</div>
<div id="main_wrapper">
<div id="main">
<div id="choose">#abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz</div>
<div id="content">Main content comes here.</div>
</div>
</div>
<div id="footer">
<p>My Name <span>admin log-in</span>
</p>
</div>

}
You can also see my code in this jsFiddle.
What am I doing wrong? (look at the scroll bar in the picture)
Thanks in advance!
Remove height:100% on the main-wrapper. The height of 100% means 100% of the available space inside the parent (the header and the main-wrapper has the same parent). But the main-wrapper is not aware of the headers height. So the result will be 100% + 150px.
I have made a few adjustment in style.
I have given percentage height for your container(you can adjust them as per you need) and scroll property to div.

I worked around it using this explanation: http://dorayme.netweaver.com.au/ciaran.html
My wrapper now has a position:absolute with top: and bottom: equal to the height of header and footer (+ height of borders)
#main_wrapper{
position: absolute;
top: 170px; /* header + bordertop + borderbottom */
bottom: 50px; /* footer + bordertop */
left: 0;
right: 0;
background-image: url('path/to/img.jpg');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: 50% 40%;
background-color: #5a646d;
}
Thx to Johan Sundén for pushing me into the right direction!!
I'm not really a champ when it comes to CSS, so I was hoping I could get some assistance.
Right now I got one parent div with two child divs. Currently, whenever I resize the browser, the two divs overlap each other. I want the left div to be visible at all times.
It can be viewed in action over here: http://unlimitedbrettworks.com/forums/
CSS:
#header {
position: relative;
height: 140px;
overflow: hidden;
background-color: #E1E1E1; }
#logo a {
overflow: hidden;
float: right;
width: 620px !important;
height: 190px !important;
cursor: pointer;
background: url(../images/art/logo.png) no-repeat;
}
#userarea {
float: left;
margin: 0 1em;
padding: 1.5em 1em 0 1em;
text-align: left;
font-size: 0.95em;
width: 38em;

#userarea a:link, #userarea a:visited {

}
#userarea a:link, #userarea a:visited {
color: #333333;
}
#userarea a:hover {
color: #800000;
text-decoration: underline;
}
That is the first problem. The second is on line 128 in your css file.
div#wrapper
{
margin: 0 auto;
min-width: 764px;
max-width: 2300px;
border: 10px solid #333333;
}
Needed to be:
div#wrapper
{
margin: 0 auto;
min-width: 1024px;
max-width: 2300px;
border: 10px solid #333333;
}
I went to your site, and played with Chrome's inspector, and found an answer.
Try adding these properties to #userarea:
#userarea {
position: absolute;
background-color: #E1E1E1;
height: 100%;
}
Hope this helps
Sorry, I didn't get your question... in the page you linked the #userarea div is always visible even if you resize the window.
To see the #logo div entirely, remove the 'height ' attribute from the parent div #header and it will go on a new line if the window is not large enough.
Ok, I give up - I can't work it out; the wrapper seems to go from the top to the bottom while I want it to leave a gap at the top and bottom so the background appears through. I can't seem to work it out. I am very novice to this. Any help & ideas very welcome.
Code
body {
background: #ffffff url(bgfin.jpg) repeat;
font-family: Tahoma,arial, sans-serif;
font-size:12px;
color:#666666;
height: 100%;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
#wrapper {
background: url(body-line.png) center repeat-y;
padding-top: 65px;
padding-bottom: 65px;
}
#wrappertop{
background: url(header.png) top center no-repeat;
}
#wrappertbtm{
background: url(footer-new.png) bottom center no-repeat;
padding-bottom: 65px;
}
#container{
width: 959px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
.title{
width: 959px;
height: 56px;
padding: 15px 0px 10px 0px;
font-size: 30px;
color: #bd7821;
}
#navigation{
position: relative;
width: 959px;
height: 40px;
z-index: 2;
}
#navigation li{
float: left;
z-index: 2;
padding: 0px 34px 0px 0px;
}
#navigation li a{
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
outline: none;
height: 28px;
color: #e3e3e3;
z-index: 2;
font-size: 12px;
padding: 15px 0px 0px 0px;
text-decoration: none;
}
#navigation li a:hover, #navigation li#active a{
color: #bd7821;
text-decoration: none;
}
#header{
position: relative;
width: 959px;
height: 196px;
z-index: 1;
margin: 20px 0px 0px 0px;
}
Try:
body { padding:20px 0; }
Or:
#wrapper { margin:20px 0; }
That is shorthand for:
#wrapper {
margin-top:20px;
margin-right:0;
margin-bottom:20px;
margin-left:0;
}
Remember:
Padding is rendered inside of the element
Margin is on the outside
