Well, the footer is not centered in other browsers, either! That's
because it is 920 pixels wide, absolutely positioned, inside a 
990 pixel wide DIV called "#body". The "auto" margins won't affect
an absolutely positioned element.

What you are missing is a "left: 0;" declaration on that footer.
Or, if you retain the present widths, use "left: 35px;" to center it.
You also need to establish the "#body" DIV as the containing block
for this. Adding "position: relative;" to the rule for the "#body"
should do the trick for all browsers ... even IE.  :)

Cordially,
David
