Exclamation [CODE] Content goes above footer

I don't know how to define it. I don't know a bit about CSS. I just know some HTML (not too much).

Today, I purchased a CSS template (cuz i don't know how to make my own)
but when I try to write more than the area provided, it goes above the footer.


____________


When I write in the default area provided it works good and neat.

But if I want to write more and more... the page don't stretch (height don't increase) it just gets Ugly Like THIS:



Please help!!

Hello shivam3d,
It's hard to tell without looking at your code, screencaps display the problem but not the cause. If I had to guess, you just need to add clear:both; to the #footer.

Upload the current version of your project and give us a link to the test site.

And I am not sure where should I put clear:both;. Can you please point that out for me?

EDIT: and I can't upload the site now, it have some confidential information. But I will upload it tomorrow. But it would be really great if the problem gets resolved today.

Sorry for my bad eng

The problem seems to be the body has a set height of 640px.

Code:
#bodyPanel{width:762px; height:640px; position:relative; margin:0 auto; padding:0;}

Yes, I see that. But when I increase 640px to something like 840px, the footer's color gets..... i can't say it in words. Here is a screenshot

Can't we make it so that it auto increase height as I type and also move the footer down?

Just remove the line height: 640px; and let the div behave naturally, it will expand to contain what you put in it.

Of course, if you put floats in it you will need to clear them and the box model says you cannot put anything inside #bodyPanel that is wider than the #762px it's set at.
