Whitespace at the bottom of the web page

Hello!

I’m creating a web site and I am seeing a whitespace at the bottom of the web page. Please give my some help on getting rid of this whitespace. Below is the html code.

Thanks!

Can you give us a website or reproducable HTML/CSS to go off of…? We have nothing to base our answers off of. You probably need to put a CSS reset in your stylesheet since there is probably margin still on the <body> element.

Thanks for the tip. I have more than four stylesheets attached to this web site for the sake of making it responsive.

Can you post your website link so I can see what’s causing the white-space?

I just checked my body element and its margin: 0; padding: 0; I’ll go ahead and post the website link.

Thanks!

Might be margin set elsewhere. Still need htat website link.

Edit-You need to format your code in your first post (should have mentioned you did that)…I’ll get a moderator to format it :smile:

Done :wink:

Hey Ryan!

Here’s that website link: http://www.jquerymobile.host56.com/proneim/layerslider/index.html. Sorry for not formatting the code.

Thanks!

The only white-space that is present (depending if your screen is big enough) is only because there is not enough content for the full page. No margin errors or anything like that. Add a lot of random content and you’ll see hte space go away.

@cpradio You’re always on top of it.

Ok, great! Thanks for helping me with this issue. Thanks for the quick response as well!

Don’t thank me, thank my lack of social skills :wink: . You’re welcome.

Hey Ryan,

I placed more text inside the article element and the web page increased in size, but the footer div remained stationary. Please advise.

Ryan,

I figured it out.
