MSIE no more knows bottom

[stefano picco]

Hi,

I got the following stylesheet and it works on all major browsers on
windows and macos:

body {margin:0px;background-color:#ffffff;}

#foot
{position:fixed;bottom:0px;width:100%;height:16px; background-color:#c0ffc0;}

with

<div id="foot">Footer</div>

Only the MSIE 7 placed it at the top!

Do someone know this problem and got a workaround or css hack?

bye
Stefano

It surely doesn't. It doesn't on the most popular browser, IE 6.

You apparently didn't test on MSIE 6 at all.

Besides, on MSIE 7, you most probably triggered Quirks Mode by using
wrong markup, see

(Hint: Posting a URL is essential when asking for help. Among other
things, it would let people see what, if any, doctype you're using -
something very important, though many authors are unaware of this.)
