title: How to merge bottom border to the bottom of the page
body: <p>I am trying to merge the footer border to the bottom of the page. I have no actual border just the background colour.
  The results I want to achieve:</p>
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/RSYsN.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/RSYsN.png" alt="enter image description here" /></a></p>
  <p>I have tried using padding bottom, border-bottom-style but it is still not merging.</p>
  <p>My code:
  <div class="snippet" data-lang="js" data-hide="false" data-console="true" data-babel="false">
  <div class="snippet-code">
  <pre class="snippet-code-css lang-css prettyprint-override"><code>footer {
      background-color: #dddddd;
      padding-bottom: 40px;
  }</code></pre>
  <pre class="snippet-code-html lang-html prettyprint-override"><code>&lt;footer&gt;
          &lt;p id="footername"&gt;Example Text&lt;/p&gt;
          &lt;p&gt;Example Text&lt;/p&gt;
          &lt;p&gt;Example Text&lt;/p&gt;
      &lt;/footer&gt;</code></pre>
  </div>
  </div>

  <p>I basically want the bottom white line to go away so that the grey background will connect to bottom page as seen in the first picture</p>
