Html – How can I make a navbar at the bottom of a webpage using CSS?

I’m trying to make a navigation bar at the bottom of my webpage using CSS, but cannot figure out how to make it stay at the bottom.

HTML:

<div id="navbar" style="position: ??????; left: 0; right: 0; bottom: 0; height: 50px; background-color: #333; padding: 0; font-weight: bold; color: #c5cad0;">

</div>

When I set position as ‘absolute’, the bar stayed in the middle of the page when I scrolled down.

When I set position as ‘fixed’, the bar showed up on the bottom of the screen before I scrolled down.

When I used ‘static, relative, or sticky’, the bar was below the content, but not full width and not all the way at the bottom.

I am trying to get the bar at the bottom of the page, below all of the content (like Stack Overflow does).

    Looks like you need z-index and width with position

    try this:

    <div id="navbar" style="position: fixed; right: 0; bottom: 0; height: 50px; background-color: #333; padding: 0; font-weight: bold; color: #c5cad0; z-index: 9999; width: 100%;">
   Here I am!
</div>

    This should resolve your issue.
