Well, the clearing didn't do it. At least not as I understand it.
Here's a bit more info:
... bunch of stuff... <home_bg> <home> float:left</home> <home-right> float:right </home-right> <footer>clear:both</footer> </home_bg>
In ie, home_bg sticks out a couple of pixels below the footer, but not in safari/moz. I've tried applying the :after trick from p.i.e., as well as adding a <div class="clearing"> before and after the footer.
To make things a bit more confusing, the exact code as listed above works perfectly here: http://www.digroup.ca/newsite/about_us
Can anyone see what I'm missing?
Thanks,
Peter

Aha. Thanks. Clearing ought to do the trick.

A little more information about your CSS would be useful. This is pure speculation but could it be that the <home> and <home-right> are floating blocks that are collapsing the <home-bg> block? When you introduce the <footer> block into the body of the <home-bg> you're giving it some height again. Maybe you need to clear the floats after the <home-right> block.
