Sticky footer broke in this new chapter (Controlling Layout with CSS Display Modes)

So the sticky footer we did in the last chapter broke in this. It did not break completeley but a scroll bar still appears. You can see about half of the footer and you must scroll to see the rest.

I inspected it and the height is still the same, as well as the calc() function in the media querries.

Any ideas?

I had the same problem, because i didn't give the footer a fixed height the body elements pushed the footer and this code bellow fix it.

footer {
    position: absolute;
    left: 0;
    bottom: 0;
    height: 100px;
    width: 100%;
}

Hope this was helpful and good luck.
