min-height:100% doesn't work on my container?

Dear fellow readers on Stack Overflow, I am currently working in CSS and I ran into trouble with giving my container a minimal height of 100% to get my footer at the bottom of the page, and not any higher.

*{
    margin:0;
    padding:0;
}
html,body{
    margin:0;
    padding;0;
    height:100%;
}
body{
    font-family:Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
    font-size:12px;
    color:#EFEFEF;
    background:url(../img/bg.jpg);
}
#container{
    width:1150px;
    opacity:0.7;
    background-color:black;
    min-height:100%;
    margin:auto;
}

/* Main Navigation */

#main-nav { height: 50px; }
#main-nav dl { margin: 0; padding: 0; }

/* IE5 Mac Hack \*/ 
#main-nav { padding-left: 11px; } 
/*/ 
#main-nav { padding-left: 11px; overflow: hidden; } 
/* End Hack */

#main-nav dt { float: left; }

#main-nav dt a {
    display: block;
    height: 0px !important;
    height /**/:50px; /* IE 5/Win hack */ 
    padding: 50px 0 0 0;
    overflow: hidden;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
}

#main-nav dt a:hover {
    background-position: 0 -50px;
}

#main-nav dt#about,
#main-nav dt#about a { width: 71px; background-image: url(../img/nav/about.gif); }

#main-nav dt#services,
#main-nav dt#services a { width: 84px; background-image: url(../img/nav/services.gif); }

#main-nav dt#portfolio,
#main-nav dt#portfolio a { width: 95px; background-image: url(../img/nav/portfolio.gif); }

#main-nav dt#contact,
#main-nav dt#contact a { width: 106px; background-image: url(../img/nav/contact.gif); }

body.about dt#about,
body.about dt#about a,
body.about dt#about a:hover,
body.services dt#services,
body.services dt#services a,
body.services dt#services a:hover,
body.portfolio dt#portfolio,
body.portfolio dt#portfolio a,
body.portfolio dt#portfolio a:hover,
body.contact dt#contact,
body.contact dt#contact a,
body.contact dt#contact a:hover {
    background-position: 0 -100px;
}

body.about #header {
    height: 150px;
    background: #db6d16
            url(../img/headers/about.jpg);
}

#header{
    height:150px;
    background:#DB6D16 url(../img/headers/about.jpg);
}
#header h1{
    margin:0;
    padding:0;
    float:right;
    margin-top:57px;
    padding-right:31px;
}
#sidebar{
    float:right;
    width:280px;
    line-height:18px;
}
#content{
    margin-right:280px;
    line-height:18px;
}
#footer{
    height:100px;
    clear:both;
    font-family:Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size:10px;
    color:#C9C9C9;
    border-top:1px solid #EFEFEF;
    padding:13px 25px;
    line-height:18px;
    margin-top:-100px;
    position:relative;
}
#footer a{
    color:#C9C9C9;
    text-decoration:none;
}
#footer a:hover{
    color:#DB6D16;
}
#footer #altnav{
    width:350px;
    float:right;
    text-align:right;
}
#main{
    overflow:auto;
    padding-bottom:100px;
}
.hidden{
    display:none;
}
#content h2{
    margin:0;
    padding:0;
    padding-bottom:15px;
}
#content p{
    margin:0;
    padding:0;
    padding-bottom:15px;
}
#sidebar .padding, #content .padding{
    padding:25px;
}

This is the CSS I use, the effect is: http://picpaste.com/e85f01c1b470e03c36988c1487917add.png So, if you look at the pic, I want to have the footer (everything below the white line) to be at the very bottom, and everything above the footer (content,sidebar,header,menu) to be connected to the top of the footer.

If more information is needed, please do ask!

If you want to put your footer at the bottom of the page you can either position:absolute;bottom:0; or http://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/sticky-footer/
