Absolute position inside column
I have a page which consists of 3-column body. Inside the first and the third column there are buttons. I try to position them correctly.
In particular, I have a problem with the first column's button which must be displayed at the bottom of the page (near footer).
But the styles I used doesn't have an effect. I suppose it happens because the column is empty and positioning works relative to its height. I tried to make use of height:100%; property, but it didn't work.
How should I work around it?

</div>
<footer>
<div class="container-fluid">
<p><a id="f">All right unreserved</a></p>
</div>
</footer>
</body>
So right now my solution works only if I put lots of text inside the first column - then the Up button is near footer, as it should be. But without text it goes upwards..
EDIT: I managed to solve it by putting both buttons right into body, but if there is a solution which allows for them to remain in their respective columns, I d like to know.
On the pictures the up button is next to the footer, while the down button is near header.

<div class="col-md-8">.This book must have been revolutionary when it came out in the 1930s. The language, the style, the unbashed uncaring for literary norms must have been like a fresh air of rebellion to the stifled people of the 1930s who just few decades ago were under the moral oppression of the Victorian age. The book begins with an ode to Tanya's cunt. And it continues in the same manner. The word cunt is probably the most used word in the entire book. Today it would be called vulgar, but at the time it was revolutionary and brave. Miller describes multiple women he's had sex with while living in Paris, mostly on the money of other people, or as a vagrant and homeless on the streets. Most of the women he sleeps with are prostitutes (and he goes at length discussing the different types of prostitutes), but there is also the Jewish adulteress, the Russian princess with gonorrhea, the strange french woman to whom he gives 100 francs and then takes them out of her purse after having sex with her in her house above the room of her sick mother. Chapters of lucid description of characters (mostly Miller's friends whose money he uses, at whose houses he sleeps and whose women he has sex with) and some semblance of story lines are alternated with chapters of stream-of-consciousness monologues with prophetic statements and deep insights into life and living that usually come only after a very heavy intoxication with various substances. The book finishes in a middle of an action, just like it starts. Nothing really happens throughout and there's no sustained plot or even any novel-long characters (except the author-narrator) but it does give an entertaining and fascinating view into the life of the American emigres to Paris between the two wars in a much different way than Hemingway.

One method I would recommend is that you use flex
First make sure body, container, row and col1 all take up full height even when empty (inspect to confirm).
If they do, then set col1 to display:flex. You could easily then use the flex-end property of flex children to make it stay down.
#upButton {
align-self: flex-end
}

Making the upButton fixed we can control it irrespective of it's parent So this way we can achieve your requirement
<head>
<style>
#upButton {position:fixed; left:5px; bottom:5px;}
.col1 { height:100%; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row" style="height: 100%">
<div class="col-xs-2 col1">
<a id="upButton" href="#header" class="btn btn-success" role="button">Up
</a>
</div>
<div class="col-xs-8">.......</div>
<div class="col-xs-2">
<a href="#f" align="right" class="btn btn-danger" role="button">Down
</a>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>

Try to change your style to this. The output maybe the result your looking for.
<style>
#upButton {position:fixed; left:0px; bottom:0px;}
.col1 {height:100%;}
</style>
I changed the position from absolute to fixed, try to read different values for position... CSS Layout - The position Property
