Ok, here's what's going down. I'm trying so desperately hard to get a div to float at the bottom of the browser window for both IE and Firefox (more-so for IE). I finally found code that works in both browsers, however the code requires me to use a DOCTYPE for my document. Now I know it's important to do so, but I can't find one that doesn't cause gaps in my layout. I don't really understand all the jargon and what it does inside a DOCTYPE, however this is the closest I've gotten to work:
This doesn't cause any gaps in Firefox, but in IE, i get some gaps in some tables or maybe at the top of some images.
If I remove the DOCTYPE all together, the layout all looks fine, but my floating bottom aligned fixed div doesn't stay at the bottom in IE.
I feel i'm very close on this. I either need to figure out what causes those gaps and fix that, or find the right DOCTYPE that won't cause these gaps, but will still allow this div to float in IE.
Let me know if I need to show any code. I would link to it, but it's on an intranet, so not available publicly.
Thanks.
