I had a similar issue with this sticky footer tutorial  If memory serves  you need to put your form tags within your  lt div class Main   gt  section since the form tag itself causes issues with the lineup

For modern browser  you can use flex layout to ensure the footer stays at the bottom no matter the content length  and the bottom won t hide the content if it is too long   HTML Layout    lt div class  layout-wrapper  gt     lt header gt My header lt  header gt     lt section class  page-content  gt My Main page content lt  section gt     lt footer gt My footer lt  footer gt   lt  div gt    CSS   html  body     min-height  100vh    width  100     padding  0    margin  0      layout-wrapper       min-height  100vh      display  flex      flex-direction  column      justify-content  space-between      layout-wrapper  gt   page-content     background  cornflowerblue    color  white    padding  20px      layout-wrapper  gt  header   layout-wrapper  gt  footer     background   C0C0C0    padding  20px 0      Demo  https   codepen io datvm pen vPWXOQ

Footer     position fixed    bottom 0      That will make the footer stay at the bottom of the browser window no matter where you scroll

I agree with Luke Vo s solution  I thought it would better to omit justify-content  space-between  from layout-wrapper and add margin-top  auto  to footer  You wouldn t want your body to be hanging in the middle and only have footer pushed to the bottom  This approach addresses any content extending beyond the viewport

Footer   position fixed  bottom 0  width 100       worked for me

If you use the  position fixed  bottom 0   your footer will always show at the bottom and will hide your content if the page is longer than the browser window

I think a lot of folks are looking for a footer on the bottom that scrolls instead of being fixed  called a sticky footer  Fixed footers will cover body content when the height is too short  You have to set the html  body  and page container to a height of 100   set your footer to absolute position bottom  Your page content container needs a relative position for this to work  Your footer has a negative margin equal to height of footer minus bottom margin of page content  See the example page I posted   Example with notes  http   markbokil com code bottomfooter
