Make sure your code validates:

Then if you still have problems you may need to consider adding Conditional CSS:

Thanks very much for your reply.
Is there a reason why early versions of IE do this?
I’ve given each of the elements above it a height, and set the footer to clear. I’ve tried placing a block element:
<br class="clear">
….before the footer but still no luck.
Is there a reason it does this so I can avoid it in the future?
Thanks
It’s a known IE7 bug. Its CSS box-model was severely broken. See http://www.satzansatz.de/cssd/onhavinglayout.html
Aha! Brilliant, thanks for your reply.
I’ll just hide the footer for early versions of IE from now on then!
Thanks!
Next problem….I’m trying to use:
<!--[if IE 7]>
#footer, #innerfooter{
position: absolute !important;
top: -9999px !important;
left: -9999px !important;
}
<![endif]-->
and
Display:none
But no joy:

Can anyone tell me how I can hide the footer in IE 6/7 ?
Many thanks again

Add to your CSS,
#footer {
*display: none;
}
