IE7 I can't check either, but (just as ~David's screenshot for IE7; 
http://www.chelseacreekstudio.com/ca/georg/gs.gif) I notice in IE6 under XP 
that there is a white bottom gap of 23px (all font-sizes, at 1024x768 
resolution).

Maybe there is a simple explanation / fix [1], but I have no idea why 
this is happening. Couldn't find a 23px anywhere in the css (or maybe it 
is the result of 2 other distances)...
Anyway, I found after some experiments [2] that:

    * html body { margin-bottom: -23px; }

is helping, together with in the html (IE only) 2 times a non-breaking 
space just before the end of the last wrapper div's:

                        <div id="tr">
                        <!-- Santini -->
                        </div>
                <!--[if IE]>&nbsp;<![endif]-->
                </div>
        <!--[if IE]>&nbsp;<![endif]-->
        </div>
        </body>
        </html>

See testpage 
<http://home.tiscali.nl/developerscorner/css-discuss/test_santini_IEbottomgap.html>

Should IE7 need kinda this too (with a Cond.Comm.)?

[1] Among the other bugs: "The well-known 23px IE mystery gap"? ;-)
[2] For me, "shoot in the air and try at random" is still a good method 
to find antidotes for IE (after browsing in PIE). :-)
