Hi!Have a little trouble with setting a top and bottom table on a page.
I want the bottom table to always lie at the bottom no matter what
I put in between.
I start off with 1 table that is 100% in height, I then split this up
into 3 rows, 1 top - 1 middle and 1 bottom.
Have tried setting the page properties/ bottom margin to 0.
No matter what I do I can't seem to get it working, any ideas?
Regards, Christian

Hi cristian,
The problem with what you are trying to do is the fact u are using tables and table height tends be related to the size of the font you have set inside and the 100% height tends to get ignored.
You can acheive this by using layers and css (very good book available here on CSS by the way)

A quick search on 'css layer absolute positioning' should bring up some results you can use.
