 * Ive been trying to get my footer to stay below the blog content and can get it
   to sit fine once the content div’s are set to a height pixel dimension but then
   they will not expand to fit the changing size of the blog posts. I have tried
   setting the content div to auto/% which makes it expand to the size of the blog
   but the footer then sits in the middle of the content and not the bottom of the
   page. I thought I could do this with CSS but so far no such luck. How does this
   feature work on the default wordpress template? E.G a footer that sticks to the
   bottom and content that expands and shrinks to fit the blog? Any suggestions 
   of directions to tutorials would be much appreciated

 * You need to start by sorting out the [validation errors](http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.waxbotanical.com%2Fblog%2F)
   in your theme. Then move onto the [CSS errors](http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?warning=2&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.waxbotanical.com%2Fblog%2F).

 * Thanks for the reply. Are there any errors I should be looking for in particular
   with regards to getting the footer to expand with content? I’ve been trying to
   get a simple dummy webpage working with similar features using CSS but have had
   no luck so far, would I need a separate file like the footer.php to achieve this
   or should it be possible with a single style sheet?
