Default Append Master Page to bottom/ below page

Previously using WP X4 - now using X6

I have a section of my site that has variable sized pages (FAQ). I have a master page intended to be used as a footer.

Is their any way of making this master page append to the bottom of the site page so that my page height does not matter?

Absolutely!

Go to the MP, select the objects of the footer > Arrange > Attach to Bottom of Page.

Perfect, thank you!

I have adjusted the background image so that it is tied to the bottom of the master page and this then displays correctly (as a part of the footer).

The next challenge is around the size of the main page itself. Is it possible to:
1. Dynamically resize the page depending on the size of an iframe (ie using variable sized pages within an iframe that are used as a basis to resize the page so that you don't have top have scroll bars inside the page).
or
2. Use a hidden panel that when clicked (eg click to expand an article) the whole page expands to accommodate the panel at the bottom of the page.

In both cases, the footer would need to remain below.

Thanks

1. I don't think you can dynamically resize an iframe to fit its contents, if that's what you're asking.

2. If you place a panel at the bottom of the page and then hide it, I think you'll find that the browser leaves a gap to accommodate the hidden object (and if there is a footer object in that gap, the two will overlap when the panel is unhidden).

Thanks - is there any way to expand a page then?

(That is, have hidden copy that the web page concertinas out to reveal upon the click of a mouse)
