    Hey guys,

    Both myself and the programmer I have hired are stumped as to why this footer wont display correctly...

    http://www.ferrarimeets.com/events.php?id=3

    Seen at the bottom of the page, in Firefox... we are using a templating system similar to smarty. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

    Cheers.

    Try taking height:100%; out of the HTML attribute. You do not need to define height 100% anywhere (as I see anyways)

    Not sure if this is anything to do with the problem or not but I see <div id="footer_legal"> twice... I thought an "id" can only be used once on a page.?
    :)

    ok after looking through your css file - ive gone as far to find the problem with your footer is being caused by all #event related lines (namely the margin commands)

    i dont really know a good quick way to fix it without rewriting a whole heap of it but at least you know whats causing it.
