Skinmaker gurus: Gaya / html aligning content from bottom of screen upwards...

[lordy]

Hi,

I'm trying to get content to be aligned at the bottom of the screen.
Gaya seems to ignore all the various height css/html combinations Ive tried.

I've got a yucky solution that involves using a vertical 1px wide transparent image.
I'm hoping there is some nice tried and tested method used by the skinmakers out there before I commit to the following

Code:

//css to collapse table border,margin and padding

{table}
{tr valign="bottom"}
  {td}
    {img src=1.jpg width=1 height=#scanlines }
  {/td}
  {td width=100%}
      ALL OF THE REAL BODY IN HERE
  {/td}
{/tr}
{/table}

I'm done experimenting on this - so unlikely to try stuff unless it's specifically confirmed as working with Gaya

Code:

<table border="1">
        <tr valign="bottom">
  
  <td align="center" width="1100" height="650">
      ALL OF THE REAL BODY IN HERE
  </td>
</tr>
</table>

not 100% sure thats what you want... but its working on my machine to just have it the full screen and aligned at the bottom.

Thanks, I'm pretty sure one of my first tries was similar (html 101 ) , but I was finding the table would not reach the bottom of the physical screen unless there was enough content "pushing it down" .. I'll give it another spin!

Nope it works I swear that was one of the first things I tried several times! I must have had too much other css stuff floating around.
Thanks excal.

Cheers. It's come back to me now, somehow I went from

Code:

<table height=100%>

examples for normal browsers, and complete skipped this before wondering off into overcomplicated - hack land..!
