Again... templates vs. page layout regarding page height

[HansV]

Hi all

I have a simple website on which I want to display a watermark graphic in the background. That graphic is about 300px high.

When I set the height of the main section in the page layout to a height of 545, that height is not respected. In stead, IE displays the page as high as the text. If there's not a lot of text, the page will be very short, causing my graphic to be displayed only partially.

The solution I have implemented now is to set the height in the default css for the main section.
However, when my page is longer than that height, IE displays the text *over* the footer...

Is there a solution for this?

Thx
