Hello Kepler - Thanks for your tip; unfortunately since this is a hard-wired blogging system, the HTML cannot be changed so I cannot implement an HTML-based fix. Just to see if you were right (about display:inline; pushing the content to the right of the wrapper) I did re-set my screen resolution to 1600 and I didn't see it either.
If I float the UL, the footer graphic and links do appear in both IE and FF so I know it has something to do with the absolute positioning of this element -- but I just don't know how to fix it for IE. I'm starting to get the "shakes" that this one issue is going to hose the entire design. Anyone else have any ideas to fix this via the CSS? Please??? Thanks in advance as always!

Hi Cole, Your CSS looks Ok. What I believe is happening is that since the #bottom_nav container overlaps the #content_wrapper above it and the fact that you specified #bottom_nav as display:inline, IE puts the content to the right of #content_wrapper. By adding a break to your HTML will tell IE to place the next element below instead of next to. Here is the section of HTML with the break added: <DIV id=extra_9><!-- --></DIV><!-- End content_wrapper --></DIV> <BR clear="left" /> <UL id=bottom_nav> I only tested in IE7, don't know if it will behave in IE6.
