I see... Your page displays the same (different from your screenshot) in all browsers here (Camino, Firefox, Safari, iCab, Opera). The copyright part is lower than the list of links. You're complicating your life a bit, I think. As you have essentially a fixed width page, try the following structure: <div id="footer"> <div> <ul id="footerlinks"> <li><a href="">Footer Link One</a></li> <li><a href="">Footer Link Two</a></li> <li><a href="">Footer Link Three</a></li> </ul> <p>Copyright Telstra eBusiness Services Pty Ltd 2007</p> </div> <div> #footer has a background-image as wide as needed, for the top corners #footer div has a background-image as wide as needed, for the bottom corners the ul is floated left the p is floated right Like this: <http://dev.l-c-n.com/_temp/sb/sb.html> Philippe --- Philippe Wittenbergh <http://emps.l-c-n.com> ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
