I'd hate to start yet another sticky footer thread, but I just can't figure this out. It works in FF, not IE7.

I think I must just be missing a ">" or something that FF is smart enough to know should be there.

Never use margin-top in combination with a clearing element-- it renders differently in just about all browsers.

Never knew that - but that's straight from the site that's supposed to work for everyone - stickyfooter.com

Looks like StickyFooter uses browser hacks to effectively use different styles for each browser... they also seem to have a "clearfix" that you haven't implimented into your code. I would imagine that once you add that in, it should work.

I'm no stranger to web design but I'm new to layout completely in CSS like this - is there a "hack-free" way to get a sticky footer? From what I've seen online, this seems to be the most accepted method.
Thanks for your help though, I'll give their clearfix a shot.

That made a big difference - I think I just need to mess with some more of the margin/padding.
Thanks again.
