CSS help please

[hazza.mcazza]

hello!

i'm working on a re-design of my site which can be found here: www.hmorton.net/new/

i dont know how to make the "container" fill the browser window. making the height 100% doesnt work if the contents is large.. any ideas?

also, i would like the "footer" to kind of stick 2px from the bottom of the page. so even if the contents of the page takes up like 30px in height, the footer will still be 2px from the base of the page. i hope that makes sense...

anyway, any help for these things or any advice on how to improve the CSS layout or anything else about the site would be greatly appreciated!

thanks,
-hazza.
