    copied!<p>I'm having some trouble with my web page. A picture probably descibes it best so here it is:</p> <p><a href="http://a.imageshack.us/img837/8223/skjermbilde20100902kl18.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://a.imageshack.us/img837/8223/skjermbilde20100902kl18.png</a></p> <p>The text at the bottom is supposed to be inside the white area. I want the white div to change in height depending on the content. I have a div that centers the white area in the middle:</p> <pre><code>#mainContainer { margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-top: 20px; width: 800px; min-height: 700px; height: 100%; } </code></pre> <p>I have also set html and body to 100%. But the problem is that the div stays at 100%, no matter how much content there is. Now a really strange thing happens when I set height to <code>auto</code>:</p> <p><a href="http://a.imageshack.us/img837/8295/skjermbilde20100902kl18y.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://a.imageshack.us/img837/8295/skjermbilde20100902kl18y.png</a></p> <p>This is how it should look (and how it does look using height: 100%):</p> <p><a href="http://a.imageshack.us/img837/7112/skjermbilde20100902kl18b.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://a.imageshack.us/img837/7112/skjermbilde20100902kl18b.png</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.vei24.no/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">The full page can be found here</a> (click on "Om oss" to see the page with the misplaced text)</p> <p>I would really appreciate it if someone could figure out what the problem is! :-)<br> (Hopefully the CSS and HTML is easy to understand)</p> <p><strong>Edit:</strong> I just noticed that it renders properly in Safari, but not in Firefox.</p>

An individual column

Larger individual text columns get their own page to allow for proper reading.
