[SOLVED] Browser scroll bars even on my short pages

Not sure what happened, but all of the pages on my site scroll way past the end of the footer. I have looked at the HTML source, but it gives no indication why this is happening. I can't find an option for page length in the theme settings, so I am at a loss.

I just published this site today. All day it was fine. I have rebooted my pc, still no luck. Happens in all browsers.

Can anyone help. The site is http://easyaccessonline.com

Thanks.

GYou should look at your site using the FireBug Extension in FireFox and examine the area below the footer to see what element it is and what CSS is vbeing applied to it.

or you could export your settings and go trhu one option page at a time and reset the options and then look at the page and see what happens. EWhen there is a change in the height, you can look at the options on that page.

(took me less than 2 minutes to figure it out with FireBug)

No, I actually just looked at it again and saw it, but I have really made no changes since it was working just fine today. What could be causing all that stuff to show?

Looked at the HTML Source. I am just trying to figure out what could be causing all that crap at the end of the header. It looks like a bunch of wp-admin links when you look at the source.

The only thing I have been working on today is the Header graphics. So I just deactivated that plugin, but all that stuff was still there. I have no idea what it is.

Take a look while you are not logged into the site.

Your original question is about the scrolling....that is what I was answering.

Here is the start of the footer in the HTML source to the bottom of the source:

Code:

<!-- Footer -->

<td id="footer" colspan="1">

    </td>





</tr>

</table><!-- / layout -->

</div><!-- / container -->

</div><!-- / wrapper -->

</body>

</html>

Now that I am logged out I don't see the wordpress admin stuff, but still a never ending page

If I export all of the themes setting to a file and reset the theme, will I be able to restore it by importing the settings again? I mean does everything come back? I have made so many CSS changes over the last 2 months I would hate to loose them.

I actually backed everything up before this started happening.

Yes you can reimport it and your settings will be there.

If you don't use firebug to examine the area below the window, do as I said and reset one page of options at a time.

I am seeing this using Firebug:

Code:

<ul id="er_0384889703779822_cm" class="er_cm" style="display: none;">

<li wasclass="separator">

<a href="#about">About Rotator...</a>

</li>

</ul>

It is strange as it doesn't show in the HTML, but it does in Firebug. Not sure if this is the cause or not.

Go look at the CSS applied to the container

Well, I reset all theme options and no longer do I have long pages. Then I restored a backup I did this morning and it is back to being long.

I stripped out all of the CSS Inserts, but that didn't do anything so I assume everything there is correct. It is something within the settings, but I don't know where to start. I stripped out the code that creates the text for the footer, but again, nothing.

Any ideas on where to look?

GOT IT!

No idea how this got there and why it didn't effect anything until now but in the 'Layout Container Style' I had this:

min-height: 3000px;

Nice.

Thanks for all of your help. Love the Theme and glad I donated $20 the other day. Worth every penny.
