3,861 PointsWhy is my footer going to the top?
Hi guys. Being doing HTML & CSS for a few months now and have a problem. I just started college and need to build a web page as one of my assignments. Anyway, I am trying to get my footer to go where it should be, at the bottom. For some reason it's going towards the top of the page. If anyone can help me, it would be great. Thanks!
