Olá Liz,

You need a div inside the content div (by the way, you have two of this 
one) that pushes its height. My suggestion is:

1- edit the markup so the footer div gets inside the content but after 
the the cols divs...

<div id="content">
<div id="leftCol"><p>Lorem ipsum ...<p></div>
<div id="rightCol"><p>Lorem ipsum... </p></div>
<div id="footer">footer</div>
</div>

2- edit the footer style rules as follows:

#footer {
 *clear: both;*
 text-align: center;
 *background-color:white;*
}

That's it!

HTH!

Roberto
