}
<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>
  <head>
  <title>Contact Me</title>
  <link href="C:\Users\dan\Desktop\Table Generator Website\style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
  </head>

  <body>
    <div id="menu">
      <ul id="mainMenu">

	  </ul>
    </div>	
<div id="container">	
    <h2>Contact Me Directly</h2>
   
    <form>
	  <label>Full Name:</label><br> <input type="text" name="name" class="formText"><br>
	  <label>Your Age:</label><br> <input type="text" name="age" list="ageList" class="formText"><br>
	  <datalist id="ageList">
	  <option value="18">
	  <option value="19">
	  <option value="20">
	  <option value="21">
	  <option value="22">
	  </datalist>
	  <label>E-Mail:</label><br> <input type="text" name="e-mail" class="formText"><br>
	  <label>Your Message</label><br><textarea rows="5" cols="50" class="formText"> </textarea><br>
	  <textarea></textarea>
	  
	  <input type="submit" value="Submit">
	
	
	</form>
	</div>
	   <footer>
	  <p>This website </p>
	</footer>
 
  </body>

</html>

I would like my footer to always be at the bottom of the page according to the content displayed in the page. I don't want to use position:absolute because some pages have more content and position:absolute just makes the content hide behind the footer.

How can I keep the footer always at the bottom of the page without position:absolute? or is there a way to use position:absolute but still make the page scroll down according to the displayed content

you can use this code for position fixed :

 footer {
    background-color: SlateGray;
    bottom: 0;
    height: 100px;
    left: 0;
    position: fixed;
    width: 100%;
}

Apply position: fixed. rather than using position: relative. Your problem will be solved.

Just change footer style to this:

 footer {
      background-color:SlateGray;
      height:100px;
      position:fixed;
      bottom:0;
      left:0;
      right:0;
}
