Thanks Sandra. I actually would like to dump any browser specific styles altogether; if only I can find the right browser-neutral style property combo that can give me the footer alignment that I was trying to accomplish. If there's no better alternative, then I'll definitely just make my code css std compliant, as you indicated.
