Hi guys,

Thanks for taking the time to read this…

I’ve been trying to get position:fixed; to work for IE. Obviously, it works in Firefox.

I’ve searched and found loads of tutorials on this but when I preview them, they never work - and I’ve tried 6 or 7!

The div is called “footer” and my stylesheet has this code:

```auto
#footer {
    left: 0;
    bottom: 0;
    position: absolute;
     margin: 0px;
     padding: 0px;
     width: 772px;
    height: 20px;
    line-height: 16pt;
    text-align: right; 
     background-color: #D1D1D1;
}
body > div#footer {
    position: fixed;
}

```

My site is at [www.spindriftmedia.com/2006/main.php](http://www.spindriftmedia.com/2006/main.php) If anyone can help me on this, I’d really appreciate it.

Thank you very much and I hope to hear from you.

Take care,

Mark
