Useful Java Application Components

Hi,

The padding-top for an item is added before the content so in effect, your XML was pushing the rule down the page. If you change your example like the following two lines you'll get the effect you want.

<footer rule-color="red" rule-width=".5">
    <footer-part width="500"  bgcolor="red" align="right" padding-top="50">

Maybe the same thing was happening with your image? (Note it's padding-bottom in the header and padding-top in the footer)

Regards

Martin
