How to control the height of your kick

I have found on most books and sites about soccer that say to produce a low shot your supporting foot and kicking knee must be in line with the ball. So in order to produce a high shot do you put your supporting foot behind the ball?
Andy has said on 03:27:05 Wednesday 30 June 2004: I can answer your question: to produce a high shot lean back when you kick. For low do the opposite, lean forward. The position of your supporting foot and the way you lean both make an impact on the height of your kick by influencing the position of your kicking knee. The position of your knee (at the moment of contact) relative to the ball determines to a large degree the height or trajectory of your kick. As you can see from the above diagram, if the knee of your kicking leg is behind the ball, your swing will be directed up. Be careful not to force your knee ahead of the ball or you may plow your kicking foot in the ground. by Expert 18:55:04 Tuesday 13 July 2004
