    I have a footer at the bottom of one of my cells on my webpage. When there is not enough text on the page the footer naturally raises up.

    Anyone know by css or otherwise how to keep the footer text at the bottom of the cell with the normal text aligned to the top?

    You should be able to use min-height: ???px; for the main part of your page to keep the footer that distance below on every page.

    min-height won't work in IE6 :(

    OP : Not really too sure what your problem is here. Could you post a link to your page, or post some of the code here?

    Do you want your footer fixed at the bottom of screen, regardless of content? If so look into position : fixed; bottom : 0px; for your footer div.. and you'd want to set padding-bottom to whatever height the footer is in your BODY element (i.e. body { padding-bottom : 100px; } )

    OR... If you've got a left or right floated column that the footer div is rising above, then add clear : right;, clear : left; or clear : both; to the footer div.
