   is your footer contain widgets?
   if not? i assume both theme's for your blog.. have footer.php in their respective theme directory.

   copy the blog1 footer.php
   to blog2.php

   then define the class in the style.css to your blog2 used by the footer in blog1.

   if both contain widgets.. it will only copy the default widget in that footer..
   if both footer's are widgetisize.

   Move the old footer over to the themes folder, renaming the footer that is there footerx or whatever. The moved footer is named footer.php. You do NOT have to define anything. This is about as simple as it gets - Nazcar stop making things complicated. BTW - show me a footer that has a widget?

   If the function calls don't work then adjust them with the new blogs files setup.

   Just do it. If it doesn't work then fix it!!! Move on.

   i was referring with css style.. like <div class="footer">
   might have different style or undefined style..

   a footer widget? an example is the Pixel theme: http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/pixel

   Thanks for the link to pixel - a horizontal sidebar (footer)- some have asked for that.

   The screenshot - OMG, that is so bad. I can see you are an engineer and not a designer.

   I was referring with css style.. like <div class="footer">
   might have different style or undefined style..

   Complicate things because of might or if . . . WordPress is really pretty simple but only if we try to keep it that way.

   If you encourage people to just change it - if wrong change it back - that is how they learn. Fast balls, no curves or sliders.

   I am so off subject - Bring wordpress footer from one blog to another - sorry loftyfinds

   oops sorry.. wrong permission.. link fixed..

   yeah WP is simple but can be tweaked thru CSS or might destroyed by improper CSS..

   back to topic:
   if his first blog has a defined style like width or background or any. that is an issue.
